My god, I can't believe a month has gone by already. It seems like a dream almost. Surreal or something. Most of my days pass in a mix of feeding, diapering, bouncing, swaying, shushing, and "Please God, let her go to sleep"-ing, with a little mix of "Wow, she's so precious" thrown in when she's awake and not yelling.
I think her digestive issues (she's screams most of the times she's getting ready to poop. Can't tie it down to something in my diet. Who knows why? Plus, we think she has a tiny bit of reflux. We have to hold her upright a while after she eats.) are settling down. She's spending more time awake and quiet, looking around at things. Mostly the light in the living room. She even "talks" to the baby doll that's in her playpen/bassinet/changing table/etc upstairs.
**Warning: Next paragraph contains some information which you might not agree with. That's okay with me. **
Of course, it helps that I let her sleep on her belly sometimes. yeah, yeah, back to sleep, blah, blah. I can't actually believe all those studies. There is no way to make a control group or to keep the conditions similar enough for it to be a conclusive experiment. Besides, she has excellent head control, and I check her often. She gasps and spits up too much on her back. Listening to her, I am afraid she's going to choke herself.
Wait, she's sleeping. Why am I not in bed? c-ya all later
