Baby is wayyyyyy fussy this morning. There are hardly any quiet wakeful moments today. Why is Baby so angry!?
There is a point when holding, feeding, burping, bathing, and changing just doesn't work. I reached that today and Harrison still wasn't ready to pass out. My ears couldn't handle it any longer so I calmly told Baby I needed a time out for 5 minutes and set him in his crib. He proceeded to wail and make his sad noises :( But I honestly needed my 5 minutes and so I excused myself from the room.
This was harder than I thought it would be. I feel really bad. He clearly is unhappy with the situation. But honestly, what can you do when Baby is truly unconsolable and you're the only caregiver?
Much to my amazement Harrison has drifted to sleep. No one can say for how long, so I too will put myself down for a naptime.
