And we are up for feeding #1. B was extra gassy and squirmy yesterday, but I'm optimistic (probably foolishly) that it won't continue through the night!! Wishing sleepy baby dust for all of you ladies tonight!!

Up for the first feeding as well. B had a hard time falling asleep due to gas but he had a good 3 hour stretch once he did. Let's hope he gives me another good stretch!
2nd feed for us. We got a 4 hr stretch then a 2hr. I was hoping for a longer 2nd one because by the time I get him back down now, I'll only have like 1.5hrs until DD wakes up for the day.
Also, it took me twice as long to get B back down after our first feedcbecasuse of course as soon as I put him down he had a massive poop. 😩

Our friends brought dinner last night. The wife is a NICU nurse. She doesn't have kids yet, so she likes to pick her friends' brains to try to better understand parent/ baby relationships. Isn't that neat?
They stayed til 11:30. I was so tired I wanted to die.
Baby did just let me sleep 12:15-4:15. I'm hoping that when this feeding is over, I'll get another 4 hours. But... Toddler.

N was fussy after I put her down but finally went to sleep around 11 after I rocked her. Gave me two hours.
She was just super lazy on the boob so I'm pumping despite being so tired I can hardly see straight.
Also my left elbow is so sore I can barely use it. Making things extra challenging. I can't reclasp my bra on that side or massage my breast during feeding

H took the 4am feeding and this little turkey woke up 90 minutes later hungry again. So here I am.
silvermelody what's up with your elbow? That sounds like no fun at all!! Never mind - just catching up on the ransoms thread. That fall sounds really scary!!
judyblume14 yay for fun company but boo for 11:30. I would be dead lol
peaseblossom55 I'm sorry she's so upset tonight - hope she has calmed down some by now.
At least I remembered my glasses when I got up this time!

W has woken up twice in the past two hours which is unusual. He's also eaten of both boobs both times. He still has some congestion so maybe it's that. Idk. H changed his diaper and sucked his nose out and I think he intends on taking him out to the living room after he's done eating. We shall see. It's so nice to have him home and not working this weekend!

We regressed from 4 hour stretches last night - somewhere between 1.5 and 3 hours. Thinking about trying different bottles today to see if that helps his belly/gas, or if that's just the stage we are at with sleep now.
Meh, after one night wiyh a long stretch last night was a return to 2hr stretches. I guess I'll take anything longer as a bonus but have low expectations for consistency. So. Tired.
C was up every hour last night. Every hour. Nurses, back to sleep. One hour later, repeat. All night. She is sooo congested though so maybe it's that- I'm going to try and get rid of the congestion as much as I can today
