Grunting baby

Image
By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
So it seems like I have a little grunter.  My 2.5 week old baby boy seems to get hiccups all the time which lead him to being fussy and cranky.  What can I do to prevent them?

It gets very frustrating in the middle of the night!

My new little one is a major grunter and hiccuper too..he gets really uncomfy at night cause he doesn't burp well, especially when he's sleepy it seems..unfortunately, I don't really know what to suggest to help...I know lots of people are against this, but I've been putting him to sleep on his tummy since he was just a few days old..the pressure on his belly helps him burp..i did this with my daughter too; she was the same way..but I don't want to suggest you try it unless you're totally ok with it. You can old try burping him mid-feed, see if that helps keep him comfy and calm, and less likely to gulp and get hiccups

I have several friends who have mentioned allowing them to sleep on their belly. I am not going to try it... it makes me really uncomfortable.

I am going to try to burp him more often!!

Last night was a good night. :) I was extremely happy about it! :)

are you eating foods that might cause him gas? tomato-y stuff, spicy things, veggies like cauliflower or broccoli?

Knot Genie Review and Giveaway

By Praises from a Wife and Mommy!
If you have a little girl and have not heard of the Knot Genie then you need to watch the following video:   "The Knot Genie™ and Teeny Genie™ Detangling Brushes were created for every mom that has endured the foot stomping and screaming matches that come with brushing their child's hair. With the Knot Genie, even the curliest, most knotted up hair practically slips through the unique bristle configuration – gently and painlessly. Try the Knot Genie on your kids (or on yourself) – you'll be amazed by the ease of brushing, as well as how it virtually stops breakage and split ends. You've wished for hair brushing standoffs to end. Wish granted." My Review:  Thanks to the Knot Genie for sending me the product to conduct my review.  I was not paid for this review and all opinions expressed are 100% mine.  I know I have grown so tired of my daughter coming to tears every morning when we did her hair. I was becoming to think she was the most
