The last few days have been really tough for Dorian, he has been having a lot of stomach pains and has been hardly sleeping at night and during the days. It really hurts to hear him scream and cry in pain, so I called the doctor's office for an appointment, the nurse advised that I might be feeding Dorian too often and causing him upset stomach. My supply has picked up, so I think every 2 hours is a bit much for him, he can easily sleep from 9:30 p.m to 2:00 a.m or 3 a.m without waking to feed. I think we'll try for every 3 to 4 hours between feedings and see what happens, I will also use a colic reducing bottle when I pump and feed him in between breast feedings.
Other than those little problems, Dorian reached 9 lbs Monday night, by May 3rd he had grown 2 inches since birth. I love my little angel, he is definitely a gift from god and I will never forget it. Things do get stressful, sometimes I really want to scream, wishing time would slow down and everything else (work,cleaning) would just disappear so I could just focus on Dorian. I try to keep myself calm though, I know Dorian can sense it and I don't want him to question his security and trust in me.
Jumpstart begins next week, I am excited but a little nervous at the thought of leaving Dorian at the shop with Cameron and the boys, it wouldn't be bad if it was at the house as Cameron has watched him at the house while I've gone to the store, but the shop is huge difference and so I am a bit nervous.
