Another Good Day
misty · Sun, Sep 20, 2015This morning, Milo was again fussy and rather inconsolable. So we did what we do and walked around with her, bounced her on the ball, rocked her in the rocking chair. Eventually we got her to sleep a bit. Then, in the afternoon, we decided to go to another Giants game (Milo’s second). She fell asleep in the wrap (as usual), slept all the way to the park, and slept through 4 complete innings! In fact, she slept so soundly that we couldn’t have woken her up if we’d tried. After I fed her, she (amazingly) fell back asleep and stayed that way until the end of the game. Funny note: the booming voice of the cotton candy vendor was the only thing that jolted her, though she quickly fell back to sleep after he passed our section.
On a different note, we tried giving Milo a bottle again, and she flat refused to take it. We aren’t sure what the reason is, as we’ve gotten her to drink from a bottle before this. We think maybe she doesn’t like an artificial nipple, as she also refuses a pacifier. I’m going to look into other nipple-types to see if there’s something better out there. I’m going to a breastfeeding circle tomorrow, so I’m hopeful that the lactation consultant will have some advice.
