7 Months Old



Brianna turned 7 months old today! That sounds so old to me! I can't believe I have a child! The more I think about it, the stranger it seems. Anyway, she is such a joy. She has been sleeping all through the night for almost a whole week (but for some reason was up 3 times last night!). It's been a great thing to have 12 hours of rest without her. I've been able to get things done in the evening and have a little time for myself! I never thought that would happen again!
Anyway, here are some pictures of her. Her pigtails are finally matching little water spouts today. All week it changed sides and one looked like a floppy ear while the other was a spout!

she is so cute! I'm so glad she is still sleeping well! Do you really think it's because of the chiropractor? I don't think Hannah is as bad as Brianna ever was, but I'm still exhausted from her bad sleeping habits. I can't wait for it to get better.

Sarah,
Brianna reduced her chiropractic visits from 3 times a week to once a week this last week, and now she's not sleeping again. that's the only thing that changed. I feel that it's related. Every time he checks her, her nerves that connect to her gastrointestinal track are pinched...he relieves it and she isn't constipated anymore and her reflux has improved a ton! She hardly spits up at all anymore. But, the last few days have been bad again since she hasn't seen him.

So I was just readig your comments above and you were saying that Brianna doesn't do as well when see doesn't see the chiropractor. What do you do about that? We'll she all ways have to go and get her intestinal track unpinched? Does the Chiropractor say that overtime it should just keep itself unpinched? Just curious. Anyway, these pictures are too cute! I am sorry about all the health issues you have had to struggle with, with this little cutie. I hope that you can get all of this sraightened out (literally...heehee) soon!

The chiropractor is confused why she isn't staying stabilized. Most babies only need to see the chiropractor a few times. Brianna is the first baby who has ever needed more therapy. She's been back to her 10 minute naps twice a day and waking 5-10 times a night again! She just has so much gas again. We saw him on Monday and she slept through the night again last night, but her naps were still bad yesterday and today. I don't know what we'll do! But I guess we'll keep seeing the chiropractor until she gets stabilized!
