Jillian is really starting to get her own personality. She is also really ticklish. Lately we’ve been spending some quality time on the floor together. She giggles and coos and smiles and makes me feel great.

But it isn’t all fun. You may recall from this post that she is a gassy girl. Well lately I think it has just been too much for her. She should wear a sign that says “Contents Under Pressure”. She has been very upset lately and her tummy is all tight and tense. She has been burping, spitting up, farting and pooping a ton. Sometimes the food isn’t all digested at the end. You can tell she is really miserable. Between the two of us I think Amber and I spent about 3 hours awake with her last night alone while she cried and screamed. All you can do is bounce her, shoosh her (white noise) and sing to her. Sometimes she’ll suck a finger or a pacifier which seems to help, but sometimes she is too upset even for that. I hope this is short phase. It breaks my heart and makes us all really, really tired.
