1 month old!!

So our little Madelyn is getting very big, very quickly! Olivia and I brought her to her check-up today, like a typical mom I was afraid she wasn't eating enough, was underweight, and basically worrying about every little thing....I thought this would go away since she was my second child and then I realized it would never ever go away.....I would worry about how her first day of school would be, the first time she would drive her own car, and what college to choose.  This little epiphany I had just happened to be when Olivia was trying to take of all her clothes in the doctor's office, Maddie was screaming, and I realized I had forgotten my purse, so needless to say it was a short lived thought:) Anyways Maddie is a whopping 10 pounds, 21.5 inches long, overall healthy....... and has colic.  Yes the screaming sessions for hours for no reason finally have a name.  After trying numerous different formulas, numerous gas drops, burping techniques, and complete exhaustion the first month of her life we have an answer.  In a weird way it makes me feel better,  knowing that it is not our parenting, rather a symptom that goes away over time.  Tonight, since Steve is traveling for work, I was on duty alone, however instead of getting overwhelmed and stressed about her crying...I rocked her, shushed her, and cuddled her as she screamed her head of I thought that much sooner than I want she will be going to prom and I will wish anything that I could turn back time.
