So it was shaping up to be a normal night. Even when c woke at 12, I wasn't that worried.
I came in to get him and sat down to nurse him. He started screaming like I was killing him. Also arching and throwing himself. S came in and took him for a few min but he just cried louder and harder. I came back in and got him to latch and nurse while I rocked and loudly shushed him.
Now he is asleep on me. I'm so afraid to put him back in the crib bc I don't want the crazy and loud screaming again. Sweet lord. He does not feel warm at all.
I hope everyone else's night is starting off more normal than this.
Oh no, that sounds terrible. I wonder what got him so worked up. I hope you're able to get him back down without a repeat.
Our night is good so far. She slept for 3 hours!! I didn't quite sleep 3 hours because O was coughing a lot but I'm still excited. She also took her first bottle tonight without a problem.
I'm sorry kdrake8 I hope you are able to get him back down without incident. I hate the screaming. It makes me sad.
My children are currently sleeping, but I am awake. The littles refused naps all day, and have been up and down since 8. We are at 2 wake ups for M and 3 for G so far. The biggest one made a giant production about his first loose tooth from 10:30 until 12:30 when he finally yanked the sucker out. Now I'm waiting until I'm sure he's asleep so I can go be the tooth fairy. I'm sure as soon as I'm done with that one of the littles will wake up again. I don't have high hopes for tonight.

Ugh! I really hope that this is the end of wake ups tonight for you!!

This is great!! I hope you get more long stretches!!
Ok so I tried the crib and it was a Fail but that's actually normal. S went in and Carson went right back to sleep with him like normal too.
I'm too keyed up so I'm in here probing and holding a hot compress on my eye. I seem to always get an eye sty due to stress at the beginning of the school year and this year is no exception.

A did a 3 hour stretch which is great except I didn't go to bed when he did. Now he's up again, exactly 2 hours later. I can't tell if he's hungry or needs to fart. I think it's both. And now he's found his feet and is mesmerized by my phone. We have a early morning appoitment too. Don't think I'll be getting any sleep tonight.

I'm excited he did three hours for you, even if you weren't sleeping. I hope there is a repeat and you get 3 glorious hours of sleep!
I haven't slept yet. I just laid down and my mind is wandering. I normally nurse Oliver around 10-11 and didn't tonight. I am debating going and nursing him.

Awesome! I'm glad she took the bottle well. Hopefully those stretches get longer and longer soon!

I'm keeping fingers crossed that he does another decent stretch for you!
Just checking in. I hope you ladies are getting more sleep now! A woke up, nursed a bunch, I changed his diaper, and he is tossing and turning now, probably trying to poop. I just hope it doesn't sound like something I need to change immediately.

Did it seem like he was awake when he was screaming? D would do this horrible screaming thing when he was younger that sounded like someone was torturing him, wouldn't latch, very hard to soothe, he would be really tense and it would last anywhere from 2-15 minutes. He would then relax, nurse and go back down but he never seemed awake during it.

Oh my goodness that sounds miserable. I hope the rest of your night went better.

Sorry Loco Coco. We had a rough night too. He did a 3 hour, 2, 2, 1, 45minutes and then I had to get him up to get to his appointment. X was up twice. I don't think I slept at all.

I do not miss every fart requiring a diaper change, I was so happy once we reached the dry fart stage, lol.
H is working from home today so he got up with D (6:20) and I got to sleep until 7, I nursed A just before I came downstairs and he is still sleeping up there, where were those 2+ hour stretches from 3:45-6:45?
