it's been a rough night for my beautiful boy.....he's been really agitated today.  tonight (like most nights) it's only gotten worse.  

his little cheeks get all red from moving around so much, and he has lots of secretions today so it's harder for him to breathe.  it hurts me so much to see this pained expression on his face.  i wish, oh how i wish, i could take all this discomfort and pain away from him.

even when i'm holding him he is still wincing in pain.

 grinding his teeth.........

i know he's in so much discomfort when he starts to grind his teeth.  he's been grinding them all night. :(  

every time i leave the room to go into the kitchen to get his formula bag ready he ends up like this.......in less than 10 seconds he has worked his little body into this position.  i keep the pillows on the side to try to block him in, and also to keep him from banging his head on the floor if i don't get to him quick enough.  his little body gets so rigid and stiff that he just flips himself over, and then his arms get stuck under neath his body.  i love him so much.
