Eis slept seven hours, then three! Wow. I still spend about two hours getting her down, but 2215-0515 was great. We both woke up before my alarm went off this morning, so I was leisurely getting ready for Zumba after I fed Eis.
I go to Zumba a bit early, so I called to make a doctor appointment for Eisley. She had been sounding hoarse and I wanted to have her checked out.
Zumba was great. I taught three routines and Sabrina had a new one. When I got home, Dad was holding Eis in the living room and rocking. He said he'd had to hold her pretty much the whole time I was gone because she'd cry when he'd try to put her down anywhere.
I took her from Dad after I showered. She was definitely not feeling well. She would scream and cry and it was so pitiful because her voice was so hoarse. I finally got her to nurse. She had a dirty diaper and so I put her on the changing table and leaned over her. She cried in any other position, so I didn't really have much choice, since I knew she was hungry.
I changed her from her jammies for the doctor, then I realised that Dr. E couldn't access her chest in what she had on, so I changed her back into what she'd been wearing. It wasn't long before we had to head out to get there on time.
I popped a 100 calorie bag of popcorn, since I was hungry, and we left. I, somehow, forgot how to get there and didn't exit properly, so I had to take some back-roads to get there. I was cursing my stupidity for about five solid minutes.
Dr. E said a lot of kids have what Eis has right now. I can give her Tylenol, warm baths, and keep her eating and it'll go away in 3-5 days (or 7 at the most). We scheduled her four month appointment and came home. Not long after we got home, Ty texted and we chatted for a bit.
I was exhausted and it was time to feed Eis, so I decided to nurse in my room on the bed. I laid her next to me and let her nurse while I zoned in and out. She eventually fell asleep and I had the lightest sleep ever, since I didn't want to move and I kept listening to her and making sure she was ok. After an hour, she woke up, so I changed her diaper. I carried her around and outside, so we could let Puck potty and she passed out on my shoulder.
I put her in the bassinet and rolled her into the dining room. I finished getting all my stocking stuff laid out and decided to work while she napped more. First, I grabbed my iPad, so I could put on some white noise for her and I listened to Pandora Radio with my headphones and my iPhone. It was about 40 minutes before Eis woke up.
She nursed, then hung out in the kicking coaster and with my dad until Mom got home. I made dinner -- hot dogs -- and then she napped some more. She's been asleep for a bit over an hour now... though I don't know what her sleep will be like tonight. She's been really... calm and fussy (varying from one extreme to the other) today.
I have Zumba and rehab tomorrow, plus it's Dad's birthday. I will undoubtedly stay home tomorrow night, so I don't have to take Eis out when she's not feeling well. It's just too chilly out for her.
