Ok, so I know I'm getting all excited a little early in the game...BUT... I was chatting with a friend on facebook the other day and was asking her what she does for tummy ache for her baby. She said she has something she would send me that worked really good for her. I got the stuff last Wednesday, I think? Its *catnip & fennel* which Mom said was the only thing that worked at.all. for her baby that was colicky until 7 months. Anyways, she hasn't been havin' too much problem with tummy aches so I haven't tried it. Well last night was like her WORST evening so far. I tried EVERYTHING and then I remembered I had this stuff here, so I gave her some...She settled down and SLEPT! I got to sleep 2 3-hr stretches!! I feel like a new person today! So guess who gets catnip & fennel from now on at the FIRST signs of possibly having a tummy ache:mrgreen: The weird thing is...I tasted it and thought...o wow poor baby. This stuff is nasty. But she LOVES it and acts like she wants more. I am in SUCH a good mood this morning...I love this! Now I know why people (with *normal* babies;) ) feel like a human by 2 weeks pp. If I could sleep like that every night I'd be back to human status in no time! Now if we can just keep this up somehow...
