[quote=Anonymous]Yay for this thread!  Great idea, OP! I am a FTM to a 6 month old boy - NMJ are his initials.

Sleep: he generally does well with this.... But only at night.  I, too, still rock or feed to sleep, and it works like a charm at night.  Bed at 7:30 (was 9:30 until about 3 weeks ago), and up for the day at 6:30.  After several weeks with few night wakings, he's taken to waking up at 4:45am this week, argh.  This morning he went back sleep with just rocking though, so not too bad.  Naps are a whole different story though.  On a good day I get a couple 30-40 min naps; on a bad day it's two 20 min naps and I have to fight tooth and nail to get him to go down for them.

Eating: sucks.  Severe food intolerance issues.  He seems to react to most things.  Most recently, dye-free Tylenol.  He spit up 6-7 times after his first bottle this morning and had mucusy diarrhea.  On both Prevacid and Zantac since those seem to help some symptoms (we don't really know if there is regular reflux too), and I'm wondering how I'm ever going to get this kid eating more than 2 real foods.  Which is sad, since he seems to really like eating if it's super smooth.  All we've successfully introduced so far is bananas and green beans.

Not sitting up on his own or crawling yet, but he's cutting his first tooth.  The poor kid is miserable, and the poor little guy has spent so much time feeling miserable already.  I wish the tooth would hurry up so he can feel good again.[/quote]
