If this turns up nothing I may legit cry.

She hates this so bad.

The part going in her nose keeps bothering her and the way she's sleeping on her side isn't helping at all. It keeps getting knocked off and she keeps getting pissed off.

She just had a coughing spell where she almost puked.

She keeps getting tangled in the wires.

She's sweating.

She's asked if we can just go home. No, not asked pleaded.

If this is all for naught, I'm going to feel like the worlds worst mother.

And I just put her in arm restraints so she'll stop picking at the nose thing.

She's going to be pissed if/when she wakes up and notices.

Ugh . Listen, our first nanny now works for Lucille Packard children's hospital in the sleep study part - she's more on the admin side now but started off doing the prep. I don't know why I didn't remember this before but if for whatever reason you need to repeat it, I can ask her for tips?

I hope you DO NOT need to repeat it and she passes out from exhaustion soon.

[gretchenindisguise]

She's out, we just have to keep waking her up because she messes with the nose thing.

If she stays in her current position, we're golden. Hahaha.

Sounds frustrating! I hope she stays still for a while for you!

[gretchenindisguise]

And now L is sleeping well.

So the machine starts malfunctioning.

Fml.

Total score.

Why are you up anyways? It's an even worse time of night where you are.

Ugh, I'm sorry, Gretchen. Hopefully you get some useful information from this ordeal.

You are a good mom. Never forget that.

Insomnia. Normal but worse when pg. hopefully just woke up w my worry sensor not for good. I hope. I woke up just as Dh would be leaving work. I usually do and then can't sleep til he gets home. And then sometimes not for hours after. But it's my normal insomnia wake up time on times he's already home too. Lol, I woke up and then (like a stalker?) used find my iPhone to see if he was at work or left. He was its leaving when I did it lol. (I could see it go from work to the route home). May be stalker-ish but i find it reassuring to check sometimes w/I bugging him. Plus we get very little cell signal at work. And he had his phone stolen twice last summer so I get a little paranoid about that too. Not like finding it via app would help but for some reason reassures me.

Maybe I need a sleep study. Sounds miserable though.

Omg I can't type tonight. Freaking incoherent post I think too. He's home so I'm going to see if I can crash again. I'm sorry and hope you get sleep too.

This is kind of genius and I think not stalkerish at all. At least not in the sense that you're using it.

ETA: I don't know why your quote disappeared. I meant to quote the bit about using Find My iPhone to see if he's left work yet.

[gretchenindisguise]

And we're home.

She slept better there than she has in a while, once we got her to stop messing with the nose thing.

It's taking her longer to fall asleep at home than it did last night.

Le sigh. I'm not hopeful that anything useful will come of this.

I hope the night went well - or at least better.

When do you find out results?

[iamgrace]

Ugh. I#m sorry.

[saraandmichael]

gretchen, if this is the worst torture you've done to her in four years i think you're out on top. i have a ton of asshole mom things i've done to my kids in an effort to help them that i can throw out for you to feel better if you'd like.

[snickers]

I hope the night got better, you are NOT in any way a bad mom for doing this. Seriously, you are a loving mom who wants to find out if anything is wrong.

[jaylea]

Gretchen, I hope you guys made it through okay. It sucks, no way around it. I dreaded the second sleep study more than the surgery, I think. It was just so miserable.

But we got results and it was worth it. I think even if you get normal results (which I doubt) that you will at least know more than you did before.

Thinking of you.

The machine malfunctioned? Noooooo!
