MOTN Mon-Tues

[longtimenopost]

Just had wake-up #1 after a short nap. Hope she sleeps until at least 2 so we only have one more wake-up!

[karinothing]

2 wakeups already. Not acceptable

[Koala]

West coast here, but I'm pumping in preparation for our 11:30 feeding. Hoping we can make it a 4 hour stretch after that. We only made it 3 last night.

[turtlegirl]

10pm here on the west coast. We just did a bath, lotion and new diaper, clothes and all swaddled up. Nursing now and hoping for a good 3 hour stretch.

I'm going to attempt to sleep the first stretch in the master bedroom rather than crashing in the nursery. But DH's snoring is making it hard for me to transition sleeping back in our bed.

[kaycee]

I had a terrible toddler day, so I stayed up to vent to my husband when he got home. It was really good to get my frustrations off my chest, but now I'm going to bed super late. I just hope tonight is the night DS decides to sleep again.

[awkwardpenguin]

Wakeup #2ish. DD is wiggling around in her RNP. I'd say she's 90% back to sleep.

[preppy]

We are on wake up 2. She was up at 10:45 and did a long feeding and is up now feeding again. DH changed and swaddled her and now with this feeding it's my shift. I did get a good stretch from 8:30-10:40 for sleep and another from 11:30-1. Not too bad.

Our day wasn't great as far as feedings/nursing go so I hope she makes up for it with a good night.

[water*drop]

I don't even count wakings anymore because it's too depressing. We're on at least the fifth right now. I can barely stay awake while he nurses. Something has got to give, and soon.

[miamigirl]

We're up. I hope she goes to sleep quickly because I'm exhausted. Today was my first day of solo parenting until DH comes back fron his trip on Friday.

[karinothing]

Awesome 1.5 hour stretch kid. And by awesome I mean horrible. Worst night ever. I just sent DH downstairs so he can actually get sleep.

[fashionx]

Stupidly we put DD to bed in our bed but she slept 3 hours and I'm feeding her now. Was supposed to be a nice calm dream feed but she's totally awake, making noises and squirming around. She caught the cold that DH and I had - well he still has - and Walgreen's was out of baby Vick's, so I got a Vick's plug-in thing instead... I think it's helping?

Sent from my Moto X using Proboards.

[namasteak]

Big hugs for everyone!

Wake up 1 here and kiddo is acting like he hasn't eaten in years.

[rugbywife]

We are up, again. I have to keep a log, to give to the doc on Wednesday. Seeing it all written down just makes me even more frustrated.

Sleep training... Blahhhh.
I just realized we left their window open and I'm afraid the neighbors will him crying, oops.

I'll probably shut it next time I go in there (which I'm trying not to do)

I hate this but I know the end result is worth it

@starry ugh. Maybe early labor signs?
Wake-up #1 here. Have to pump the other side when she's done nursing. Daycare asked me to send 4oz bottles and I need a buffer. I have a feeling we will be supplementing one bottle a day pretty soon. I'd be ok if I could consistently get my third pump in at work, but it is so hard to fit in.
Hugs ladybug. Hope it's over quickly. We will doing Ferber by the end of the month, I think.

[karinothing]

Ugh. Tonight sucks. He is waking like every 30 minutes. I have no idea what is wrong.

[dottyblue]

karinothing I'm with you. DS has been up every 45 mins or so. I am "sleeping" on the couch to give DH a break; he is desperate for sleep. DS usually goes 3 hour stretches at night!

Is it a full moon?

No idea too days ago he gave me 7 hours. You can do it dude lol. He is not upset once I get him, just cooing and smiles. So no idea. He was somewhat stuffy so I suctioned. Hopin it helps

[preppy]

Wake up 3 here, not too bad. I might try and get her into the bassinet after this feeding but I am not sure if I want to risk it on a good night!

[nmosrob]

Wakeup #4. She's looking like she wants to be awake for the day. Please, please go back to sleep.

[humpforfree]

Wake up 2. We overslept by a half hour. I can't wait until this weekend when we can consider her back to birth weight and sleep however long we want.

[huskymom]

We've been up for 2 hrs and I have to get up in a half hour to travel for s client meeting...should be fun!

[turtlegirl]

Wake up #1, just about 3 hours. I actually slept in my own bed! But I think I need to turn the monitor up slightly, she was pretty hysterical by the time I got her. Usually when I sleep in the nursery I get to her before she's gone crazy.

[pippa]

I'm up feeding DD. But DS came in right before she woke up. He sttn for once but is awake at 4:50. Yay?

I'm looking out the window at cars driving by and amazed at how many people are awake by choice at this time. Easy commute at this time though.

[mcfelix]

She keeps falling asleep while nursing. Wake up and suck down some milk so you stay asleep for a longer stretch!!

[Brie]

P is up having muscle spasms. Fucking awful.

[starburst]

I'm sorry, Brie.

Wake up #2 here. He's been waking up at weird times lately. Please don't let him be up for the day.

[longtimenopost]

Wake-up #2 and it looks like she may go down in an hour and a half instead of 2. Progress!

@starry, I can relate but my VBAC was totally worth being pg way longer than I expected!

[karinothing]

It is almost 6am. I have not slept since 2am. Overall I have had 2 hours tonight. I have zero fucking clue what is goin on. I may have just cried a bit ago. What the f kid. I think I am not even goin to try to get sleep it is more frustrating than just staying awake.

[Deleted]

I think we slept well. I can't remember. He got up at 5 and ate and passed back out. Then I pumped and now I'm straightening the house for the cleaning lady who is arriving in two hours. I took out the trash. I'm gonna go shower so send twenty minutes of stay asleep vibes my way.
