Whining, crying, screaming & fit throwing...
...but enough about me. Holy moly. I damn near lost my mind the night before last. Kevin woke up around 11:30PM-which is usual-and proceeded to scream his bloody little head off until 2AM. I had tried feeding, changing, Tylenol...and then I gave him some, too. Nothing was working. I was like WTF???!!!! Roni came to spell me at that point and took him downstairs. PTL & Roni 'cause, holy shit! She said he stayed up almost the whole rest of the night whining but she noticed that he was pulling his legs up a lot and grimacing. He had also been cranky the day before, but not as bad. Coincidentally, or not, we had started him on a multivitamin with fluoride the day before. I think the multivitamin fucked with his belly disagreed with him. Guess what I didn't give him today? He's already on a formula with extra vitamins in it and the doctor in Guatemala had taken him off his multivite. I don't think he needs it, but I don't know if I can get fluoride gtts without the multivite part. I do know that there is no way in this great big beautiful world I can watch him suffer like that again...or me either, for that matter. He's also teething so I'm sure that's adding to the problem...

awwwww... he is such a happy baby !!
He is beautiful! I wouldn't be giving him that vitamin either!
Vitamins mess with my stomach, too. K. flipped out a bit when he first got home, too. I think with the transition and the different food, he wasn't feeling so hot. But Kevin is as cute as evah!
The ADA recently came out with a recommendation to not give flouride to babies as well! I wouldnt give it to him either!

Poor baby and Mommy!!!! The formula should have plenty of vitamins for him and I agree with the flouride...no supplements needed! I have never given them to any of my 4 kids! My peditrician said there is enough in their toothpaste and we have well water to boot. Use your mommy instincts.
