Phantom Cries


It's as close to a hallucination as I've ever had. It happens on the nights that I'm "on" for the night feed (and soothing). I'll hear a distant cry, sometimes even a wail. But it's all in my head. As soon as focus my attention on my ears I realize it's not real. The biggest thing I use the monitor for is to confirm that she's NOT crying.

This Week in Noli

She's holding her head up really well.

She's finding her hands to suck on my consistently.

She has an umbilical hernia, which as Mon showed me, squeaks when you push on it (eewww).

She's sleeping well during the night but we made a lot of work for ourselves this week by trying to get a nap routine in her crib (instead of the swing). Let's just say she prefers the swing. ;)

I totally had the hallucination cries with Maya too. It's so real!

Dawson had a nasty umbilical hernia. We called it a 2nd penis. It did make nasty squishy noises. Yuck.

We had some swing nappers in this family too. I was so sad when they physically outgrew that swing...at age 3 years...just kidding.
