Loosing it!

My life is very crazy right now... and Im on the brink of loosin' it myself!  Ive got a 1 month old, a 2 yr old and a husband that has been working nights for several weeks and has at least one more.  And on top of all of that my baby has reflux.  Not just a mild case either.  We've been to the dr twice for it and she's on meds that dont seem to be working.  Ive had to pretty much stop breast feeding and now pump and thicken her milk to get it to sit heavier in her tummy so she wont reflux as much.  We will be going tomorrow to get an upper GI done on her... basically she has to drink some stuff and they take an xray to see if there is problems in her little digestive system.  During all of this Ive felt like Ive nearly lost my mind! Ive cried out to God like Ive never had before! Honestly Ive felt like Ive been abandoned most of the time.  But Ive gotten encouragement from friends and family to reassure me that He is here with me even when I cant feel Him near.  Please be in prayer for me and my family as we work through all these trials.  I need patience with my kids and husband right now and moment by moment sanity for myself.  I know this will pass but living it in the here and now is so terribly difficult.
