Miracle Drops!!!

I failed to report that a few nights ago Keaton slept for 7 straight hours, it was wonderful!!! He has been really gassy since the day he was born, and we are always getting some massive toots out of him! Sometimes this really makes him upset but when we push his legs up to his tummy we usually can get him feeling better! One night he woke up screaming and there was nothing we could do to help the poor little guy! It wasn't like any other cry we had heard from him, he would wake up every 15-20 minutes with this same screaming cry. So we being first time parents were a little worried. We didn't want to be paranoid annoying parents so we dealt with it. After 3 LONG nights of this we looked up symptoms of colic on the internet, and he about had all of them. So we finally decided to call the nurse to see if there was anything we could do to help! She recommended some stuff called kid-e-col. It's some drops from the health essential store that are suppose to help with colic. Well I'm here to tell you that they worked wonders for us!!! Since we've been giving him this he has been sleeping pretty consistent for about 5 hours every night!!! And every once in a while we will even get 6 or even 7 hours! Keaton is such a good baby...we love him SO much and are having the time of our lives with him!!!
