Nicholas is still incredibly fussy today, eating almost constantly, only sleeping if held, and crying if he isn't either eating or sleeping. (Well, we did have a glorious hour this morning where he was alert and happy, but that is gone.) Even though it is a little early for it, we think he may be growing through a growth spurt. If so, then all of these behaviors are perfectly normal. And so I'm humoring him and holding him while he sleeps today. It has been challenging with Joe gone all morning, but I'm starting to get good at doing everything one-handed. And luckily my nausea hasn't been as extreme today and the worst of it was in the wee hours of the morning while Nicholas was asleep, so we're doing okay. And Allison should be here any minute to provide some company and an extra pair of hands.
From what I've read, these spurts usually last 2-3 days and we're on day 2, so hopefully he will be back to his old self soon, for his sake and ours.
