Ds slept in till 7 (!!!) and dd is still sleeping. I enjoyed half of my coffee in absolute peace and quiet without anyone crawling on me or being covered in spit up. This better be a sign of an amazing day.
I also went to bed at 8:30 and feel refreshed despite two wake ups at 1:30 and 5:30.
Thanks lakegirl and carrots! I honestly don't know yet because she is sleeping. We normally go to a play group on Thursday mornings but are skipping it today. Even if it is an allergic reaction to something I don't want to risk it being viral. Also I had to keep her up late to watch her breathing so I want to let her sleep as long as possible. R had a good night, he gave me a 7 hour stretch, it just started at 5:30! Then he went 4.5 and now he is back down again. I should be trying to sleep considering I only slept during the 4.5 hour stretch but for some reason I'm wide awake. Maybe I should get up and enjoy hot coffee and shower in the quiet.
So jelly of all your good sleepers. B had another rough right. I'm not sure what his deal is because we do the same routine every night. 2 nights ago he gave me 5.5hrs. Last night it took him forever to fall into a deep sleep and ebb then he did 35minuts, 1.5hrs, 2.75hrs, 2.5hrs. What gives.
We have a wedding tomorrow night and I'm not even sure what to tell my MIL about his "routine". I think I'll essentially say, give him a bottle at 7 then just freaking hold him until we get home. Oye. Some days I'm so dismayed, some days I'm zen and figure "he'll get there".

Morning! Uneventful night which equals a success in my book. DS1 was up at 5 but I managed to use my magic to convince him to stay in bed. He woke up again at 7 and, like the kick ass mom I am, I handed him my phone and he watched "vid-yos" in bed with me while I slept for another hour.
DS1 has been waking up lately. On one hand it's annoying. On the other hand it's so sweet since he can communicate that he wants "snuggles in chair". Usually he only needs a minute and then asks to go back in his crib. But I mean how can you say no to sweet toddler voice who only wants a hug?
I am reaching a point again where I should probably go to the doctor but I don't wanna. I'm starting to feel tightness across my back from my cough and my chest is very congested. I think I've only been well for a few days since Christmas, this season has been insane.

IL's are in the the Bahamas for another week and SIL so jealous. H promises me we will go down with E next year. Mil wants us to bring her down too so I hope it works out.
E was up at 2 with H then up with me at 7:30. She was sleepy after her bottle so I put her back down and she slept until 10. I slept for some more too.
A friend and neighbor of mine has a babysitter she uses and the sitter finally contacted me today so I am meeting her tomorrow. I like the idea of this but not sure how I feel that when my friend needs her that I will have to combine kids. No issues with her or her kids but I wonder I at her age I just want the one on one care.

I wish I slept a well as W. He went to bed at 9, woke up at 6ish, and fell back to sleep until 9. I struggled to sleep last night. I was up at 4 needing to pump and barely got back to sleep before W woke up and I had bad dreams all night so I feel so unrested.

F was sleeping peacefully for about an hour last night when suddenly he started screaming. Not crying but full on horror movie screaming. He stopped after the longest few minutes of my life and then went back to sleep for another 5 hours.
Is this in any way normal? Do infants have night terrors?

DS1 has gotten into intentionally trying to hurt me with his words when he's mad at me. I have no idea why and I have no idea why it's just me. Normally, he just says he hates me but today it ramped up to no one likes me and everyone hates me. WTF bro?
I'm officially official! Got my onboarding call for LLR this afternoon. Inventory will of corse be here after we leave for Texas but I am gonna grow my group during that time frame!

Climbing into bed with an ice pack. I pulled a muscle in my back/neck today picking up dd and I am in so much pain. I just took an oxy and am hoping it brings some relief and knocks me out. I helped get dd to bed and then handed R of to mh. He doesn't work tonight but worked last night so he is pretty exhausted but so am I. He seemed okay with doing bedtime but honestly I don't care if he wasn't, I got maybe 4 hours of sleep last night and no sleep today, plus hurt back/neck. Sleepy dust to all the babies tonight, especially your ds ellabee!

So every night this week E fusses from 8 until about 11 refusing to go to sleep. It hasn't been fun at all not sure why either. I'm off to bed H is up with her now.

This is W. And then he just passes out.
@mmeeggaannw hope you feel better soon!
I'm sore it's not fun. I hope they both break this bad habit very soon.
