He's been sleeping 3hr 15m... 3.5hr is his record so far so we'll see. I'm up to pee and I was hot. He was really hard to get to sleep but he's still really confused why he can't have the boob, it's breaking my already broken heart actually BUT his last poop was yellow! And thick (not watery/mucous) so I think the Nutramigen is helping...

Yay! Yellow poop! We had an almost yellow one here today too although still s lot of mucus.
I hope he breaks his record and you get some more sleep!

Hey party people! I woke up at all of the standard wakeup times to find a still sleeping child. Yay!
Until I heard a thump followed by tears. He managed to fall out of his bed with a rail. (Not the first time either). He's back asleep but I think I might be up for the day.
However, there was a lovely time frame btwn Aug 2013 and May 2014 in which I could take pharmaceuticals to combat insomnia. Now I'm down to chamomile tea, unisom, or Benadryl. Let's see, if I wean baby girl at 18 months...I can start taking the good stuff in oh, fall2016?
Oh no! I hate that. Hope you can get her back down in a somewhat reasonable amount of time.
Still up.
Poor O. I hope she's okay! Does she have her 2 year molars? Teething maybe?
Oh that's torture, sorry you're still up.
She doesn't have her molars yet, I'm going to have to see if I can get a look in there today. I might do Advil tonight regardless in hopes we don't have a repeat.

Last night sucked. A wouldn't sleep in his crib so he was in bed with us by 11 and if I got an hour sleep Id be shocked. He had to be nuzzled up next to me the entire night, most of which he had a boob in his mouth. Daniel got up for the day at 5:45 and Alexander was up 10 minutes later.
C slept 3.5 hours. She keeps peeing through her night time diapers. Grrr. So I had to change her so of course she is wide awake now.
I need to buy some night diapers when I get to the store. I've been having to change William in the motn and it wakes him up more. Because I can't do it before he eats (the screaming) I have to do it after then that ruins the milk sleepiness!
But if I don't change him he pees through everything and I have to wash the sleep suit again

I used to feed Carson on one side just enough to quell the screaming... Then change him and then feed on the other side. Is that an option?
En route to airport! I'm so tired. I hope this goes well. LOL
Good luck Lola, you got this!
Julia has been congested the last few nights/not sleeping well and my H is stressed at work. We are snapping like turtles at each other. We both need sleep.

Yes I've been trying that, feeding him again after. It sometimes works. Sometimes he won't take it he is just smiling at me with his giant open eyes.
But overall he's pretty good, I just take the lazy way out often and lay down again with my nipple in his mouth know eventually he will doze off

We were up every 45 minutes from 8pm-4am. Then on and off until 530. Then crying since then. We both have a cold. He just had a massive poop that looks bloody. I got literally no sleep. I have a call in to the pedi gi.
What happens when I can no longer function off no sleep? He's 4 months and still getting up every 1-2 hours. If I'm lucky he will do 2.5-3 but that's at the beginning of the night when I'm not asleep yet. He has done a 5 and 7 hour stretch before, once, but that was 2-3 months ago. I feel like I can't go on anymore. I'm beyond exhausted. He's bf and refuses a bottle so I just have to suck it up, right? I'm honestly afraid I'm going to loose my mind from exhaustion.

So, so many hugs (caffeinated ones) in here? Misery loves company, ladies, so there's at least solidarity in that.
We had a good night for us, only 4 wake ups! I'm so, so sorry nobody is getting any sleep. I just take it one night at a time, and each bedtime, I try to renew that hope. Big hugs, guys.
Well I guess I can't just claim that O wants to torture me. C had a Dr. appointment today and the Dr. checked O's mouth and she's cutting through at least her bottom 2 molars. Advil tonight and hopefully another good night for C!

I'm so sorry, skies. Would you consider trying sleep training or are you too worried he's not eating enough?
I don't want to sleep train until his reflux is under control. He isn't waking up hungry I don't think, he seems like he's in pain and uncomfortable. I've got a call out to the pedi gi and we see the regular pedi at 4:30.

I understand. I hope he feels better soon. I remember G got so much better around 6 months once she sat on her own, things tended to stay down easier. I hope that's the case for you guys. I wish I could come hold that little sweetie so you could sleep.
Thanks hun. I feel so bad because I can't help him. I got back to work in Novemeber so I hope I can get this sorted before then.

Apparently I bought a PnP made of lava because Calvin will not sleep in it. I got him to stay in it for 45 minutes last night but I was in the living room with H. If I try to get him to sleep in it while I'm in bed, he wakes up immediately because he wants to be in bed with me. Then he wakes up 6.5 million times to nurse and I end up sleeping on the edge of the bed while he is sprawled out in the middle. I lie awake more often than not because I'm never comfortable.

Your first sentence is not funny.. But so funny at the same time. I'm sorry
