OMG! Mommy had the worse experience ever with Tyler crying!! It was nothing she had ever seen before.
On Thursday, January 10th ... mommy decided to bring Tyler to a friend's house for dinner. Tyler has been here before when he was younger, not that he would remember. Anyway ... all was well when they first got there. Tyler was actually cooing and laughing in his car seat. Dinner time strolled around, so mommy took Tyler out of the car seat with intentions of holding him while eating. Something both mommy and daddy has mastered quite nicely.
Aunty Wendy loves carrying Tyler and offered to watch him while mommy ate. So mommy, took the opportunity to do just that. Tyler was okay at first ... but then he started wailing. Nothing seemed to comfort him, so even if it wasn't quite time for him to eat mommy made him a bottle. Aunty Wendy tried feeding him, but he didn't want to eat and instead continued to cry. Mommy tried eating faster, but in the end also tried to comfort Tyler. But he wasn't having it. He kept on crying and crying and crying. Aunty Sylvia then came over to help mommy, so she could try and finish up the last of her dinner. Mommy stuffed her face as fast as she could and Tyler continued crying. Finally when mommy was done ... she again tried to comfort Tyler, but man was he mad. NOTHING worked. She rocked him, bounced him, talk and sang to him, changed his diaper, tried to feed him again, walked around, laid him down ...
By this time, he must have been crying for a good 20 minutes already. Mommy considered trying to leave, in hopes that he would fall asleep in the car ... but at the same time envisioned him crying all the way home. Frustrated, she called daddy who was still at work ... and he said he would finish up as fast as he could and stop by.
Mommy felt so bad. She didn't know what Tyler wanted. She tried everything she could think of and she couldn't manage to comfort her own baby. Practically in tears, she continued to sing and rock him and FINALLY ... FINALLY he went to sleep.
By the time daddy got there, Tyler was fast asleep in mommy's arm. Tyler must have been just tired of crying. He literally screamed bloody murder for a good 30 minutes. This was the first time he's cried for that long. Usually, he'll settle down within 10 minutes or so. Man ... it was a rough night.
