Coincidence? I hope so

March 14th, 2006 Caroline

Last night, since I was out, Eli had a bottle of formula at bedtime instead of nursing. It was not his first bottle by any means, but the first Bedtime Bottle.  Further, he had an entirely wheat- and dairy-free day. And for the first time in a week, he did not scream from 9pm to midnight.

I am surprisingly less troubled by the nursing thing than the prospect of his having trouble digesting dairy and wheat. What would I do? (Don’t answer that.) Somehow it seems like it would be easier for me to give up wheat and dairy than to give up feeding them to my child.

Well, we’ll give this a couple weeks and try again. Because the look on his face when he’s gnawing on a hunk of baguette is just too funny to lose.

    Good luck on this, Caroline! Was it soy formula? Because otherwise he wasn’t dairy-free, right? Anyway, I hope it was just a coincidence, though I also hope you can turn the corner on the screaming from 9 to midnight thing.
