So behind..

Hello to anyone who still reads this sad excuse for a blog! I struggle to write here and I dont know why. I dont have work to do so I have plenty of time, its just that I feel like I would be saying the same thing over and over again.
So random stuff....
1. I am training for a 10K. 10K is a long way to run when you hate running. I am doing pretty good so far. The furthest I have gone on this training program is 4 miles so far, but this weekend I have to do a 4.5 mile run. We will see how this goes. Right now my goal is to run the 6.2 miles in less than 1 hour and 15 minutes. I did 4 miles in 45 minutes the other day and that is about 11:30 per mile, so if I can maintain that in the 6 miles I should be ok. But really, I will be happy to finish. (Like I said, I don't like running :))
2. I am currently 5 pounds below my pre-pregnancy weight. I have about 32lbs to go to get to my goal weight. Weight watchers is still working well for me, but I really have to give credit to nursing still. It is helping me lose this weight...b/c I feel like I NEVER stop eating. Thank goodness for those extra 500 calories I burn!
3. I don't like pumping. I know I have said this before, but its still a buzz kill. Oh well. Selfishly, the one thing that keeps me going is the weight  loss. Thankfully, my supply is keeping up with what Lizzy eats, and so far I haven't had any issues feeding her. She basically stopped breastfeeding when she went back to daycare (except for in the middle of the night, which she can stop doing ANY day now) so I am pretty much an exclusive pumper.
4. Lizzy is freaking adorable and I love her to pieces, but the girl needs to sleep through the night! A couple of weeks ago we implemented the cry yourself to sleep business. The first night I went in after 5 minutes and soothed her for a couple minutes and then left and she fell asleep after about 3 more minutes. Ever since she has either rolled over and gone right to sleep or cried for about 3 minutes and gone to sleep. The problem comes in the middle of the night when she wakes up and wants her stinking Nuk. That thing is the bane of my existence. I think some weekend SOON we are going to have to let her cry in the middle of the night and not use the Nuk anymore. I can't keep waking up just to give her that damn thing.
5. I miss my horse. I haven't been out to see him in weeks, or ride him for that matter. Its so hard to get out there during the week to ride b/c I pick Lizzy up at daycare. And on the weekends I have been going out to my moms new house (closer to me! yay!) to help her put in fence posts and do other manual labor. Hopefully the horses will be moved soon.
6. I need new winter clothes. Last winter I spent in maternity clothes and the stuff I have from the winter before is all too big. Any suggestions on where to get sweaters and work appropriate clothes is MUCH appreciated!
7. I love fall. Everything about it (except that it is followed by winter)...the weather, the leaves changing, the ability to wear jeans and hooded sweatshirts, apple picking, pumpkin carving...ahh! I love it :)
8. I am 3 lbs away from losing 50 since I started Weight Watchers. Holy crap!
9. My baby will be 5 months old this month, 6 months October 16th. Holy crap! I can't believe it. We tried rice cereal this past week, she LOVES it!! Its so cute to watch her eat...(I may or may not be thinking about #2. What is wrong with me? Wasn't I just saying how Lizzy needs to sleep through the night!!)
10. My daughter is freaking adorable. Have I mentioned that???

 

Her bouncer/activity thing is too big for her, but she loves it. She stands on an accounting book to help her out :)

 

I look exhausted, but she sure is cute!

 

This was at the State Fair, it was exhausting :)

 

This was before going to her 2nd Twins game! She loves Joe Nathan (or her mama does and loves this shirt:))

 

So happy!!!!

Any ideas?

So we have had some issues with Lizzy as of late. I feel like it started right around the time I went back to work and I am not sure if it has anything to do with daycare or not.
Mainly at night, but sometimes at other feedings she will scream and scream and scream when we try and feed her. I can get her to calm down with a pacifier and I will try and switch out my boob for the pacifier and she will latch on, eat for a minute at most and then scream again. Last night I ended up crying right along with her and then she continued to scream for a good 15 minutes until she just passed out....
Needless to say she doesnt sleep well b/c she doesn't eat well at night. She has been getting up about 2 times a night which gives me at most, 3 hours of sleep. It sucks. I feel like death warmed over.
I have taken her to the pediatrician and the only thing they came up with is MAYBE she has some slight reflux and they gave us some meds to try. That was a week and a half ago. I don't think anything has changed since we started those meds. I have called a lactation consultant and they have no new ideas besides what we have tried or heard from other people.
At daycare she only eats two bottles during the day. We give them 5 ounces in each bottle and she sometimes eats all 5 ounces, but sometimes doesn't. I don't know if she isn't eating enough during the day or what. We have talked to them about it and they tell us they try and feed her and she just sits there and smiles at them. She is in a good mood pretty much every other minute, except when she is screaming.
I am at my wits end. I am *this* close to saying screw it to breastfeeding. But I don't know that formula would make a difference b/c we try and give her a bottle when she is screaming but she just keeps screaming. She doesnt care if it is breast or bottle.
Ugh..any ideas? Any? Please... :)
