I’m having a really hard time giving D his Zantac. He can spit the entire dose out at an alarming speed. It tasted awful so I had a flavor added. But it still doesn’t taste great. I know the blow in the face trick... any other tips? Are you exclusively nursing? Can you add it to a bottle? I am breastfeeding but he gets bottles of pumped milk occasionally. I just worry he wouldn’t drink it bc it would change the taste. He’s also not the best w the bottle and will not always finish them. We are working on it since I’m going back to work in 2 weeks. O hasn’t had any issues in about a week since we switched to 1 daily dose of milk of magnesia and started doing the “reflux precautions”!

I know the blow in the face trick... any other tips? Sit on him so he can’t wiggle and you can keep his head tight between your knees. (I know I’ve mentioned sitting on the kids for the nose frida before, but just in case, you’re not actually putting any weight in them so don’t call cps.) Position the syringe so it’s going at an angle to the back side of their cheek and only give 1/2 the dose. Then hold his mouth shut and blow in his face until he swallows it. Quick hard blows. I’d insert a that’s what she said gif here, but I can’t gif from my phone anymore.

Anyone else’s kid talk in their sleep? Dr. Google says it could be sleep apnea or another sleep disorder! L says small but funny things like “no, I don’t want to wake up, stay in bed!” Sure kid it’s 2am, stay in bed. I will too! I’m down for a Christmas exchange (didn’t participate last year) and all y’all will get the Christmas cards with the cutest cruise photos of L! Just sayin’ All the time. The other night W must have been sleepwalking or something but he started crying and I went up to find him just standing next to his bed crying. I got him to get back in bed and stop crying but then he was just saying random, confusing, nonsense phrases. Asking to go home or go to bed. I thought he was having a stroke. And then he just rolled over and went to sleep. Did not remember it the next day. He's sat up a few times and talked or laughed. I just chalk it up to him being a weirdo.

I’m currently eating leftover loaded cauliflower with a glass of wine. Then I’ll hop in the shower and pick up a cake for the birthday celebrations tonight.
I got 4 loads of laundry done, including the shower curtain & liner and M’s bed skirt, changed the sheets on all of the beds, and consolidated all of the birthday/Christmas gifts. I only have like 3 more things to buy for Christmas and then I’ll be done!

I haven't left the house today but feel like I've been so busy! My mom and dad came to visit and now we're waiting for SIL, BIL, and cousins to come over with dinner. We cleaned most of the first floor all day with C literally going back and making a mess behind me. I always thought I got lucky and didn't have a kid who did that but apparently he was just waiting. kleigh miss you lady! Glad things are going well.
