We took DD for her 4 month shots today, and I knew she was going to be a bit cranky. But for the last hour, Brooklynn has been crying her eyes out at the top of her lungs. I tried giving her a bottle, I tried laying down with her, I tried walking around the house with her, and tried rocking her. I even attempted to give her a paci (which she never takes, and didn't this time).
The minute DH walks up to her, she looks at him and starts smiling. Now I feel like crying. I handed her over to him, now he's feeding her the bottle she wouldn't take from me, smiling and laughing at him. I'm glad she's doing she's happy now, but its killing me inside at the same time.
Re: So Frustrating
It's ok! My LO smiles at everyone but me most days. Yes, it's sad for me, but she knows that I'm her main caregiver and always there for her so I think she just takes me for granted, lol.
Thanks for the support everyone, we are both feeling better today. DD is all smiles (for the most part) this morning, and I'm feeling better about myself. I tend to get down sometimes, and I think last night happened to be one of my downs.
Oh! It's ok! It happens! Whatever works, right? DS does that with me and DH. Sometimes I'm the "hip and now" product while other times it's DH.
I gave DS tylenol before the shots. Later on that night he was a hot bloody mess. Spiked a low grade fever and everything. Had to give him a cool bath and another dose of tylenol.
