We used to see this a lot in our home:
Lately, we've been seeing a lot more of this:
Hallelujah!
After seeing three chiropractors and three pediatricians, it was finally a pediatric specialist who found out that Kenadie is allergic to milk and soy proteins and put her on a formula that has broken-down proteins in it. Unfortunately, it's a little pricey, smells like cat food, and therefore makes Kenadie smell pretty funky. However, I'll take a smelly, happy baby any day over one that smells like roses but screams 24/7. And let me tell you, she has been doing a lot better since starting on this formula, and motherhood has been about, oh, 100% more enjoyable in the past week or so since she's been happier and has actually started to SLEEP!! Even though she's still a little fuss in the late afternoon and evening, I'll take it! Now I can understand how having kids can actually be a lot of fun! :) Thanks so much to our lifesaver, Dr. Arora, for figuring this out, helping our little munchkin feel better, and helping to restore my sanity! Oh, Sleep, how I have missed you! I'm glad we're starting to be friends again....

Hallelujah! I'm so glad she's doing better. I've felt so bad for both of you--unhappy babies make for VERY tired, stressed mothers. It will be so much better for you now that she's happier and sleeping better.
I'm SO glad you were finally able to figured out what was ailing her! Phew!!
Awesome! Glad things are finally starting to settle down in your neck of the woods! It's been a long time coming :)

YAY!! That is great news! See, motherhood isn't so bad when you've got a happy baby! Thank heavens for a good doctor, too, who could help you figure it out!
