Sleep Related: Avoid if this annoys you

[dixeedeluxe]

I know I complained when she was up 2/3x a night. But now we're back to up every hour and.....WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[redmonkeystomper]

I can't imagine! I hope this is short-lived for your own sanity.

If you can't complain here, where can you! I've been bitching about our situation lately too, I hear ya. Is she teething, hungry, growth spurt, what? Any ideas on what it might be? Is she easy to put back down or does she want to party?

[vthokie]

Ugh....so sorry. We're having sleep issues here too. Apparently a regression at this point is "normal" but fuck normal. Im TIRED!! I hope she decides to tone it down a bit for you.

[silverjm]

I sympathize, our sleep has been complete crap lately. I hope whatever the issue is she works through it quickly.

hugs!!! i know what its like and it fucking blows. hope it gets better soon!

Why would this annoy anyone?! I think we can all agree that getting woken up 2-3x a night sucks, but every hour?!?!?! Girl, you have my sympathy!!

[kdrake8]

Hopefully its a one night thing. We've been rocking the 2-3 times a night schedule for *most* of the last 4 months. She will occasionally throw in an up-every-hour night.

[dixeedeluxe]

WAHHHH! Last night was the second night that she was only sleeping in one hour stretches, then up for at least 30 minutes SCREAMING! If she was just up and playing or whatever, I'd just let her hang in her crib. But SCREAMING.

I'm so fucking tired.

Sounds like teething if she wakes up screaming!! Do you give orajel? I just read last night on the tube that its also for teething 'restlessness'. Maybe try that?!

[laurack]

Teething perhaps? we just went through a verrrry bad spell while on vacation and a tooth has popped through. Now she's still whiny as I assume it still hurts (it only because visible 2 days ago) and up 2-3x a night crying but that's much better than it has been.

Hang in there!

Did you ever end up trying any sleep training?

[dixeedeluxe]

We can't do any sleep training that invovles any crying for frear of waking Edie up. Just not something we're interested in...having TWO kids awake all night.

She might be teething. She might have gas. Who knows. But ibuprofen and Mylecon have not been helping the screaming. And, she's refusing bottles during the day but totally sucking them back at night. I don't have it in my to refuse food to a hungry baby.

So, I'll just continue to complain.

Oh dixee, that sucks. I hope it's short lived.

[dixeedeluxe]

I got up this morning and thought "Do I really have to drive an hour to work? In bumper to bumper traffic? Is this my life?"

[laurack]

awww this sucks. I hear you on the screaming/2 babies/not waking the other. That must be tough. Would be much easier for bad sleeper to be first baby not second baby!

Also I think its perfectly fine to complain and not want suggestions. I get annoyed sometimes when people offer suggestions to me hahaha. Like, just let me complain godammit!
