A is on her first wake up and I have a killer headache and we seem to be out of Tylenol and Ibprohen. Ugh I can't get back to sleep either. Tomorrow is going to suck
Oh that's no good! I hope you're back go sleep soon.
First wake up here which is awesome. I've been up for 90 minutes, not so awesome. Fingers crossed those little eyes don't pop open when I put her down.

The good news is that I woke C up after a 4 hour stretch. Bad news, he was up from about 8:30 to midnight and wanted to hold my boob in his mouth constantly. The only way he finally went to sleep was on me. Kid please sleep in your bed and take a paci!!!!

The learning to crawl is going to kill me, at least until he figures it out. Just relax baby, there's plenty of time to move but overnight is not the appropriate time.
Daniel woke up at 4 and coughed for a bit. It was a dry cough which Alexander had at the end of his cold so I'm hoping that's all it is and not the start of something new.
My IL's get here next Thursday, And then my parents the following week, I will have 5 weeks of company, I'm going to use that time to hopefully get Alexander out of my bed. I don't think I'm going to truly sleep train, I'm just going to attempt to stop bringing him into bed with me. I may be a zombie for a few weeks.
Charlotte is doing well. 4 hours then 3.5. I have to change her diaper at the second wake up now which sucks, but man she can pee a metric ton. We've even sized up, but she always pees through unless I change her.
Have you tried any overnight kind? Which type do you use?
Things are sooo much better now that I discovered the Huggies work for him and I don't have to change him

We went through a phase for about two weeks where he was leaking out the top where the snuza is (everything is pointed down ) it hasn't haooened in about a week so hopefully we don't revisit that. I think I'll move A to size 3 when we're finished these 2's. Daniel wore 3's from 8-26 months, I don't think that will be the case with this little chunk!

He's trying to crawl!? Wow, baby A, slow down! Good luck getting him out of your bed!
Yes, the last week it has been his mission to get up on all 4's. He is going backwards and occasionally forward a little, his arms do the bulk of the work for now. I think I can I think I can Aww crap! Lol This has been our week.

Oh, and Ruby was also up a lot on Friday night before my big day out on Saturday, and of course my husband slept through every single wake up. In the morning he said "well it's good I slept through the night because I have to take care of these children all day today!"
He should have never said this. I keep replaying it in my mind and wanting to stab him.
Logan has been having bad dreams the last couple nights, and he kept screaming no in his sleep. He woke himself up three times and I had to go settle him back down, but he woke me up with his screaming at least twice that. Then the dog started whimpering in her sleep. I finally gave up at 5:00 and got ready for work early.

Yeah I mean can you IMAGINE having a bad night of sleep then taking care of two kids all day anyway? I mean who does that

Oh no!my husband knows better than to ever comment about it being a good night unless I say so first. He's gotten one too many death glares over the last 2.5 years for that! Anytime he complains he's tired I tell him that if he's going to play that card I will wake him and make him stay up every time I get up. He shuts up real fast.

Every hour again for us. He doesn't even nurse each time, just crying and clawing at his face. I'm assuming reflux. I don't know. I'm about to give up.

Ugh. We're you able to get another sample to test from him? It makes me so mad that you've been fighting this for almost 5 months now with no real answers/solutions. I'm so sorry you're going through all of this. You've been nothing short of amazing fighting for him.

Well I was actually crying in the middle of the night, lol, so it did not go well. No matter what I do, carter is up every hour or less. For almost the past month. It doesn't matter if he is in my bed or in the crib. I've given Advil or Tylenol, tried soothing without nursing, nothing works. Last night Matt had to take him because I was losing my actual mind and he screamed himself to sleep after half an hour in his arms, and STILL woke up and hour later.
I hate that years later, I'm still posting I'm getting no sleep. I feel like I dread nighttime constantly like I did in the newborn days.

I'm completely talking out of my ass here so feel free to ignore me but have you considered visiting a chiropractor or naturopathic doctor? Again I have no experience with those but there are people who swear by them. I have an aunt who is a retired ND I could ask her if there is anything she recommends if you like.

I haven't tried either of those. Maybe I should! I know some is developmental because he has been trying to walk this whole time and I think he's getting some slow moving teeth. But I'm just exhausted and desperate in the middle of the night. Ugh. Thanks for the suggestions! I will look into it!

We've always used Huggies, but H bought pampers overnights last week and they suck! Next time I go to the store I'll pick up huggies again and hopefully not need to change her.
yeah there are two kinds of huggies, I'm not sure what they are called. But one kind he leaked through every night then the other kind he doesn't leak out of. The thing weighs like five pounds when I take it off him lol
It says "up to 12 hours of protection" on the package but they aren't labelled overnight diapers

I did! He pooped yesterday at 1pm and I took it to the lab right away. I left so fast I realized when I got there I was still in my pjs. Luckily I was wearing a bra.
