11:15 p.m.: Return baby to bed. Crawl back under covers.
11:39 p.m.: Baby screaming. Get ibuprofen. Use bathroom. Turn on t.v. in baby's room to use light to administer medication. Hold washcloth to baby's face as she vomits medication back up. Nurse baby.

Unlike yesterday, she was clingy and crabby. I didn't shower until after lunch when dear sweet husband took baby for a ride in the car. This was a long day. I put the baby to bed at 7:00 p.m. I hope she sleeps tonight.
