Katie is sleeping. It's amazing. She's still up once to nurse, but that has been it. If she sleeps tonight, it'll be 4 nights in a row!! All of this has been in her crib too. Simply amazing.
She gave us a couple good nights around xmas and then everything kind of went to crap again. She was spitting up, crying, awake all night. Neither of us had been eating anything different. We had started giving her Gerber Wagon Wheels. The apple flavor is dairy free and they only have one different ingredient than the Gerber Puffs that she eats with no problem. We were a little suspecious of them, but she'd been having them on and off for a couple months, so we figured they couldn't be it.
When I was out shopping over the weekend, I found some rice biscuits that were dairy free. We've been giving her those instead and she's sleeping and not spitting up. The extra ingredient that's in the wagon wheels?
Corn. It's in everything.
Obviously, we will not be feeding her corn. I should eliminate it from my diet as well, but I'm hesitant because I've never seen her react in any form at all when I consume corn. I've actually been eating it all week and she's basically been sleeping all week.
I don't know what to do. Parrot Bay/pineapple juice and I are going to think it over this weekend. Lots.

I'm glad she's sleeping. Man, I hope she grows out of an allergy to corn, that will suck! Like you say, it's in EVERYTHING!! UGH! Have some yummy Parrot Bay and relax! :)
Yay for sleep! Yikes for the possible corn allergy! We're avoiding egg now too.
I just read through a few past entries & laughed out loud at the "so big" video clip -- ds was on my lap nursing/asleep and actually raised his arms up when he heard "so big" on the clip! So funny!
Hope the good sleeping continues!
Lots of hugs to you. Have you found corn-free baking powder yet? I use Hain Pure Foods--it is the only one I know of that doesn't contain cornstarch. I have some dairy/wheat/egg free cake recipes, but one is chocolate and another contains citrus. Let me know if you are interested. :)
You have an award. :)
