Guest guest Posted September 23, 2006 Report Posted September 23, 2006 , I don't have a lot of advice, just love your baby. We rotated tylenol and motrin even as an infant. I do believe now that stomach pain is why they cry so much. I learned that if Faith slept on my chest on her stomach she seemed to do much better. (Not the safest position for an infant all night and not the most restful for you, but it helped us) Faith was really spoiled, but hey that is what they are for, and she is nine now and has turned out just fine so far. It is so hard when they are little, I think one thing that hurt Faith so much was her neck and joints. She had the hard chills and still does when she has an episode, I just wrap her up and hold her even now. I figure her fever isn't going to break anyway, so why freeze her to death, too. I know none of this advice is medically sound, but as a mom you just learn to do what works for your child. The best advice I think my mom gave me was just have really GOOD " GOOD days " that way the bad don't take over. Good Luck, Melanei Mom to Faith 9 Quote
