The antibiotics at the hospital even gave him a little diarrhea but it's back to normal now. </p> <p>He's better this morning but it's tough. DH has the theory that I was there by his side during every painful or scary procedure so my face just isn't much comfort right now. I'm hoping he adjusts soon. Just ready to get all of this behind us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808620 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 06:23:40 +0000 Foodnerd81 1808620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I'm sorry! If it helps, c used to calm down a lot more from Dh holding her at night than me. I think if I was holding her, she thought I should be giving her milk, but she could accept the comfort without milk from him. I used that as an excuse for him to get up in the motn. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808596 Mon, 11 Aug 2014 05:38:07 +0000 avivoca 1808596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry D. I wish I had words to make it better eighth now, but just know that it won't always be this way.

Also my toddler sees me and shakes her head and says "noooooo" when she is having fun with daddy on weekends. She outright rejects me so you're not alone!

Has he been pooping regularly in the hospital? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808470 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:53:37 +0000 JennyD 1808470@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: Awwwwww that's the worst. Give yourself a break though, it sounds like it's been a rough week. Great time to go have a bubble bath ;). Hang in there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808437 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:16:41 +0000 artsyfartsy 1808437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH got up and picked him up and started rocking him. Instant quiet. Cue major feelings of rejection. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808435 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:15:46 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1808435@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh hugs mama. I know it's so hard but you are trying your best to help him. Sometimes you just have to see if they can figure out how to help themselves. &amp; if it gets to be too much for either of you, you can always go get him. It's only been o e night, it's okay to let him cry a little even if it's just so you can breathe for a second. You're doing a good job! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808434 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:14:38 +0000 immabeetoo 1808434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sure it is a hard adjustment after the hospital! Hang in there. I hope he settles soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808433 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:14:22 +0000 jhd 1808433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry. You have been through so much this weekend. :( I hope he settles soon and that tomorrow is a better day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808430 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:12:37 +0000 Mae 1808430@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/basically-having-to-do-cio-right-now#post-1808418 Sun, 10 Aug 2014 22:01:52 +0000 artsyfartsy 1808418@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T won't sleep now. Used to, I would nurse him to sleep around 6:30pm, put him in his crib, and he would sleep until 5ish, in which I got up, put him in bed with me, and nursed him back to sleep. </p> <p>Now after we are home from the hospital, he won't sleep. He goes down in his crib, but when he wakes up he won't sleep next to me. I tried putting him in his swing. No. I tried holding him in the recliner. No. He acts continuously uncomfortable and mad. I only could put him back in his crib on his belly and I'm sitting in the rocker letting him CIO. </p> <p>I've sadly become more desensitized to his cries since he cried so much in the hospital. He also doesn't find comfort in me anymore like he used to. When I go to rub his back or adjust his paci he acts even angrier. I'm just so sad. My baby is not the same baby I had before all of this. I know we've only been home one day, but this kind of behavioral changes just doesn't seem like "adjusting" to me. </p> <p>Also I feel like this is the last thing he needs is more feelings of abandonment. I may or may not be crying too. </p> <p>I never thought I would do CIO. But here I am. </p>
