My little guy has given me 6-7 hour first stretches the last few nights. Tonight he is so congested, he sounds terrible and won't settle. I hate that he feels bad and I'm also sad for my sleep outlook. This is our first night in a few that mh is working so of course it's shaping up to be a not so great night.

meeggaannw, sorry tonight looks to be shitty but hooray for those long stretches! That's reallly awesome! Makes me hopeful that I will eventually sleep more than two hours at a time.

meeggaannw, so far so good. B is up for his first feeding and I'm noticing he's a bit stuffy too. I'm rocking him now and hoping he's back asleep soon. Bed is calling my name.
I'm so tired and couldn't get warm all day. If I caught the fever plague from ds I will be pissed. I crawled into bed at 8 when dd went down. This is our third wake up since then. 2 hours, 2 hours, 1 hour. Boooooooo.
We did 25 mins on the boob, an oz of pumped milk and then an oz of formula to be sure she's not hungry. Changed diaper, reswaddled, start rocking her back to sleep. Boom! Poosplosion!

I'm up pumping. Yay my phone has stopped trying trying to correct my first sentence. I mean pumping not pimping every time. Today E gave us longer stretches between feedings even with her naps. It was nice have that. H has hockey tomorrow or Friday really so I'll be on my own a long time. Some of her newborn onesies are getting a little tight already. I have to go through the 0-3 month clothes I have and search for onesies tomorrow. I weighted her yesterday and she almost 8.5 lbs on my scales anyway.
I'm really hoping the inlaws can come over tomorrow so I can nap. This will be my third not so great night in a row (one night was cranky fever toddler though) and I can't remember the last time I napped. One kid goes down for a nap and the other gets up. Or there's something pressing to do. Maybe one day. Sighs.
ellabee toddlers man. Ds has decided he does not like it when I feed the baby and pitches a fit almost every time. None of the distractions I used the first week are working this week.
