I don't know how you ladies do it

I'm talking about you ladies with the poor sleepers, still.

After the last couple of nights with Matilda I am so freakin exhausted. She spends the night crying a lot. If I give medicine she will settle for a few hours. Must be teething. She's also cranky all day but no temp. I hate giving so much medicine. She already had a bunch of it last weekend because of the ear infection/night screaming from that.

My nips are killing me from trying to placate her that way. This AM she was awake from three until FIVE am. I finally gave in and gave more medicine. I mean, I have to get up at six for work! aaggh

Kudos to you ladies of poor sleepers, I feel like I am a shell of myself now and this is only after a couple of nights!

That's how I felt this weekend after only having about 5 hours of sleep both nights. I was to the point of tears I was so exhausted. I hope M starts sleeping better for you soon!

I wish I could get Elias to take medicine! He freaks out and I have force it and I feel AWFUL. I've tried hiding it in s milk but he won't drink it. He wakes up and the crib is still in my room next to me, so I end up putting him back in bed with me. I am working up the courage of putting him in his own room and hoping that helps him not wake up as often. Cause, it flipping sucks. He slept through the night from like 2months-6 months, then it was all shit. I think he is a slow tether.

I just end up napping with him during the day so I can more human.

Laney did better last night which means she was up at 12, 330 and 6.

It was also the first night in 3 WEEKS that she didn't need medicine but she's been sick and feverish that long.

I don't know what I'd do if I had to get up for work in the morning.

Are you just talking Tylenol?? Dude, go to the pharmacy and get FeverAll rectal suppositories. Shove em up there and be done with it!! So much easier!
