Hey G, I can relate to that. My WH is flaking on me too. Sounds like Newmama and Babydoll have husbands that don't flake so much in the parenting department, but ours are more unreliable, with mine taking Gold in all things flakey/wayward, ha! NM is probably right though - your husband might get his head straight one day. As for colic, I think my baby has too! It's hard to tell with the brace on, and she's currently got a cold also, but she just goes bananas every time she's about to do a bowel movement. Is that what colic is? After reading your thread I eliminated broccoli last night (I've been having it every day too!!) and that worked much better! Hang in there - you are right, when things are not good with the baby it makes our WH's waywardness even more hurtful and disappointing.
