You remember my post the other day about how much I just love every single second of motherhood and how even the hard parts are awesome. Well, I retract that. Lets be real here, if I can't be real HERE than where can I be?
Owen has been crying for days. At first it was cute because he was sick and so I did everything a mom can do to make him feel better. Now, now it's just crying. It's "Hey lady! how dare you put me down and get in the shower !" kind of crying. It's "hey, you can't go to the bathroom without me on your lap" crying. It's NON STOP, inconsolable crying. It's not just "hey mom can I be in the same room as you " crying... it's "Don't you dare let me off your hip." crying. And I'm over it.
Mothers out there:
Help please?!
Is this a phase?
Did I spoil him when he was sick and now he can't handle being off my hip for 5 seconds?
Is he still sick?
What do I do?
Help

My guess is he's still sick. Maybe ear infection. That's how my kids act anyway.
We've been dealing with that same stuff at our house. can't wait for winter to be over.
Yep, I would guess he is still sick. Do you have a carrier that you can strap him on your back and keep him happy until he feels better?
I agree with Ness he might have an ear infection. I would have him checked out and I like the idea of the carrier. You can try putting a warm damp washcloth or heating pad on his ear and see if that helps. Good luck! Crying babies can be a handful.
Shanny, why don't you bring him over and have Dad take another look. Is he running a fever? How is his appetite?
Bleh, how awful. I'm not sure... but I'd trust the nurse. I hope it's/he's better today! I don't know how you get anything done with three- you're awesome.
