last known pic with the fussy - 11.28.08 so it was decided that Mia's long time affair with her "fussy" needed to end. it was a good thing gone bad. she was starting to ask for it all the time and would hide in her closet with it. it had went from something to pacify her to something she was desperate to have all the time.
Almost 2 weeks ago, I went in to put her down for bed and we said our good night prayers. i rubbed her head, we counted sheep and she was almost out when bolted up in bed and said "i need my fussy!" i told her that Dr. Nancy told us she was officially too big and we gave them to the new babies that were born. she layed back down and right when she was almost asleep she bolted up again, asking for her "fussy". i told her i would go call dr. nancy and if she said she could have it i would bring it to her. Well, she fell asleep and slept all night.
The next night she asked 2 or 3 times, and eventually fell asleep. We were worried because night 3 of being FF (fussy free),i had to work. Amelia prefers her daddy and i to both be home with her and can act up if only one of us is here, but she remained FF. I think on night 5 she had a meltdown and cried for an hour. that is enough to drive anyone crazy. and the weird thing is, she wasn't asking for the fussy, she wanted out of bed!!
It has been 10 days since we went FF and i think we are all much happier! Mia's poppa loves that her speech is clearing up, and she no longer has fussy breath when she wakes up so her teeth are happier too!! Dr. Nancy and Dr. Lori are going to be so proud of you too!
Congratulations Mia!! Momma and Poppa are so proud of what a big girl you are becoming. Next, we tackle potty training and a big girl bed!
