A first, of many firsts

Here it is, a little after 3 am and I've been up for over an hour with a very unhappy little boy. He's been sleeping through the night for about a month now, which has been wonderful. So when he woke up crying at 2 am I was like, what the heck?! Go back to sleep! But it wasn't happening, so I decided to feed him. I changed his diaper while his food was warming up and as I was aquaphoring his legs I felt bumps. Crap. I turned the lights on to confirm what I already knew... Blisters :(

I fed and rocked him for awhile to see if the warm food in his belly would help him go back to sleep. For a minute there I thought it was working, but as soon as I laid him in his crib he started crying again. So... I broke out the Tylenol {It's been over 2 months since I've administered any meds for pain, but this is one of those times I think he needs it} and I rocked him for another 20-30 minutes so he would stay calm while the Tylenol took effect. I think he's finally feeling better and will sleep now. Poor baby. I know this is the only the first of many nights that will be like this for him. Hopefully they will always be far and few between.
