Sunday MOTN

[vlagroupie]

Guess it's my turn to start. Am I the only one up?

[peaseblossom55]

I'm up pumping before I went to bed E was so fussy. I hope h has calmed her down and she has a good stretch of sleep.

[ellabee]

Up here. B went down early, did 2hrs45mins, a 30 minute fake-out (probably due to DH and I celebrating the Pats win), then another 2hrs20. Hoping he goes down easily this time around.

[geauxtigers79]

I'm here! Feeding #1 earlier than usual.

The pizza rolls I had earlier were a bad idea - heartburn from hell!!

[heybulldog56]

I'm up. B just slept three hours! That's the longest stretch yet. It will only get better from here!

[geauxtigers79]

Wishing this baby would burp already. He's had about 3.5oz which usually puts him straight to a milk coma, but right now he's fidgety and grunty. Willing this air to come out soon so we can both go to sleep!!

[ashtog]

It's 1:30 here now and just finishing feeding her. Hoping for a good long stretch again- Lbwas miserable all day and found out why around 6pm- he had a terrible ear infection, leaking and everything so I need my energy to deal with him tomorrow . Also, I've had 3 shoots this weekend and after each of them my PP bleeding has turned bright red. I'm 6 weeks on Tuesday and I'm 90% sure it's my body trying to tell me to slow down.

[ashtog]

peaseblossom55 I hope you get a good sleep tonight!

ellabee aw did you have him in little football fan gear?

geauxtigers79 we're the pizza rolls tasty though? Cause then it's worth it I think I hope milk cima comes soon!

[ashtog]

heybulldog56 yay!

[lakegirl]

I've had a four hour stretch and a three hour stretch! I went to bed at 8 😛
But I'm so use to shorter stretches I woke up on my own half way into the four hour one. Then that feeding was a roaster of leaking boobs, spit up, and milk coming out of dd's nose. I earned myself s midnight outfit change.

[pibblemom]

ashtog, yes, slow down!

geauxtigers79, I hope he burps soon (or did already) so you can get some sleep!

Up for our 3am feed. I woke up from C moving around so I caught here before she was awake and angry. Had to wait a bit for her to wake up to eat, but once she did she didn't fight the latch for more than a minute. Thank goodness for small miracles. Also hoping this returns to a 30 min feed and not hours like yesterday.

[ashtog]

C still is eating. I'm watching my hours dwindle away before my eyes...

[pibblemom]

I don't want to speak too soon but looks like I may get my wish! 31 mins, and she's out cold on my chest. I'm not moving til I know she's really asleep

[peaseblossom55]

In pumping so far E has been quiet for me but I suspect I will be up with her soon. I'm so sleepy though.

[silvermelody]

Yay B! heybulldog56

ashtog oh no on the ear infection. Hope it isn't too much hassle to get meds for him. And yes, you need to slow down!

lakegirl yay for longer stretches, sorry about the rest

We're up for feeding number one. We actually went to bed at a reasonable hour! 10:30 instead of midnight. On the one hand that means two actual motn feeds. On the other hand I want us on a schedule closer to the rest of the family vs going back to bed until 9:30

So I hope this is the start of a pattern shift. She was up cluster feeding through most of the evening

[ashtog]

I'm still up..........

[bazinga]

ashtog, you should slow down!

lakegirl, yay for the Earl night and long stretch. Sorry it got messy.

pibblemom, hope LO went back to bed ok.

Wake up #1 over here so hopefully we're back to 2x instead of 3x per night. If only for tonight I'll take it because the last couple of nights have been tough.

I can hear something walking around on our decking. Pretty sure both out cats came in last night. Kind of glad I'm trapped under LO so can't open the curtains to see what it is...

[ashtog]

Ahh! She's sleeping! Karen you later!

[vlagroupie]

ashtog get some sleep and slow down already!!

[vlagroupie]

I'm back for feeding #2. I guess I can't complain but I liked when she only got up once last night, soon enough we will be consistently at one wake up.

[ashtog]

Never mind. The last 20 min have just been full if fake outs and I kind of want to scream.

[vlagroupie]

Nooooooo! ashtog I'm so sorry

[ashtog]

vlagroupie I want to smother mrashtog with a pillow right now because I was editing and he was letting her sleep on him for shoot long nap. And now this is the most awake she's been all day. Currently she just fell asleep on my boob. I'm going to try to burp her and put her down.

[ashtog]

Ok. I just went pee and she's still sleeping. I'm going to kick him though to stop the snoring, and also because it's 3:42 and I'm just getting to sleep and it's him fault. Or I want to blame him

[vlagroupie]

I've been rocking this baby for 30 mins, she had better stay asleep...namaste...I'm currently laying on the floor of her nursery with a pillow and blanket hoping I can go back to bed soon.

[thelittleredm]

Annnd we were up after less than 2 hours for the first wake up and same foe this one. I give up. H gets to put him down for his first stretch from now on if W won't give me a good one.

Ugh I'm sorry I feel the frustration.
I'm still here hoping this baby will settle soon. I want my bed!!!

[ashtog]

thelittleredm and vlagroupie hugs., I'm with you guys.
She slept for 46 min. 🙄
It's 4:30. I have had one hour of sleep since 4:30 and I have a very sick toddler to deal with tomorrow. Fml doesn't even begin to cover this.

[meeggaannw]

I'm sorry for all the crap sleep mamas! I know that's awful and so frustrating, especially when they fake you out about actually going down.

We had a night like this a couple weeks ago, his first stretch didn't start until almost 6 am. It was awful but I just had a regular toddler to deal with the next day, not a sick one. I'm so sorry, I hope you get the chance for some daytime sleep.
