Corbin has been having these tremors when I feed him and he is almost asleep. So when I spoke to the pediatrician he suggested he get an EEG. I didn't think it was any big deal. Then I got a phone call from the a consultant from the hospital who would be doing the test. She said she wants him REALLY, REALLY tired. How do you get a baby to be sleep deprived enough to sleep for 1 hour straight with out moving. Well I did it. I took him in today. I did not know they would torture him so much. They measured his head and marked it all up them scrubbed the places that were marked with alcohol and pumice. He is extremely sensitive about anyone touching his head so needless to say he was NOT a happy camper. I was not a happy camper either. I had to hold a baby down so they could scrub his head. I got the look of horror from him I felt like the worst mom ever. I felt absolutely terrible. So after she finally got him all hooked up to the wires he did really well and slept for the whole hour. Other than being upset at the fact that my baby was being tortured it was so peaceful to watch him sleep. I never thought I could love someone so much. He is just the sweetest but happiest little boy. I love him to pieces. We get the results either this weekend or beginning of next. The picture was taken in a dark room with my cell phone so it is not very good quality but it does the job. Poor kid.

I hope everything goes well too. That picture does look a little scary; I second you...poor kid!
Oh Sara!! I am so sorry!! That looks awful! I cannot image having to do that! I think that there is nothing worse then being the cause of you crying child --even if it is for their own good!
Let us know what happens. We will keep you guys in our prayers!
