alex fed around 11:30 pm, then proceeded to cry on the top of her lungs for the next 4 hours straight. there was nothing we could do. she didn't want to eat. we changed her diaper. changed her clothes. took her temperature. gave her gas drops. nothing. she just cried and cried. J had her for the first two hours while i pretended anyone can actually sleep with a screaming baby in the house and then we traded for the last two. i finally put her in her swing and let her cry. she cried and screamed louder than she's ever been in her short life for about ten minutes, and i cried while i sat watching her, and then she tired out and finally fell asleep.
i have no idea what was wrong with her. J says she was 'just being a baby. they have good nights and they have bad nights.' i hope tonight is a good night, then.
so, yeah. i'm tired.

eh...she was hungry *ducks*
I'll send you some sleeping pills ;-)
lol she only stopped crying twice... when she ate. then she resumed.
right now she's sleeping angelically in her crib... of course, it's early yet... there's still time.
Ick. I remember mine having colic and we knew every night when to expect the non-stop crying. It was horrible.

Sorry to hear it, cq. For about a month, my daughter screamed for exactly one hour (11 pm until midnight) every night. No-one could figure it out. She didn't work up to it or wind down. Just all of a sudden - wah! and the all of a sudden, she'd be asleep.
Go figure.
