Worst night of sleep EVER

So, Austin was up ALL night long last night. 11:30, 12:37, 1:30, 2:42, 3:30, 4:40, 6:15, and 7:30. Each time, he was screaming as if he was hurting. After a dose of Motrin and Tylenol, nothing was helping. I got up with him at least 3 of those times and rocked with him, swayed with him, and just layed with him in the den. Nothing. It was terrible. I'm thinking ear infection becasue every time we laid him down he was crying.
So, we go to the doctor at 9am this morning. Ears are fine. He seems a little constipated. HUH??? Yeah, he missed one day, but that's not unsual for him. It happens every other week or so. The doctor tells me to give him more juice.
My poor little guy (who by the way is now 16.4 lbs (5%) and 29.5 inches (95%)). He took two 2+ hour naps that I woke him up from and one 1 hour nap that I also woke him up from... it's now 1044pm and we are off to bed. I am exhausted and ready to crash. Tonight better be better.

A great box! All the wipes are going into rotation for my son. I'm already using the lip balm from Clear Hills Honey.
