I am trying to nurse in bed this morning to get a little more sleep. DD sleeps well but I am still so tired. I think I need to convince H I just need to go to bed earlier. I am old like that.
Ugh, cat just knocked a bug (roach?) off the wall onto the bed next to my head. Eww. After killing the bug I'm having trouble going back to sleep. Great start to the day.

Oh dear aggiebug, that doesn't sound good. What time do you go to bed at the moment? Exercising enough, getting enough sunlight, etc? I'm being overprotective here :-P
Umm RedGiant that sounds better than a shot of espresso to wake you up! Eeek!
WittyLittle lol right now I end up going to bed between 10-11. But before baby I would many times be asleep by 10 so I am cutting my nights down on both ends.
We put DS in his crib last night. In the same room as DD. it wasn't too terrible. He woke up at 10:00, 1:00, and 5::30. I'm hoping to get him to go back down since I'm currently feeding him. DD woke up once.
DS added a wake up last night & didn't talk himself back to sleep, but I'm going to blame it on his stuffy nose. Sent DH in at 530 wake up hoping DS wouldn't smell milk, but 7 minutes after DH came back to bed there goes the baby. Now I feel bad I made him get up at all.
aggiebug does your H like to stay up later? Or are y'all trying to get in some adult time after LO goes to bed? RedGiant Ahhh that's some adrenaline first thing in the morning
DD got up at 2:45 this morning. She hasn't woken up middle of the night in months. I think the main reason is that she rolled to her tummy and got stuck, but she wouldn't go back to sleep with patting, rocking, or shushing, so I gave in and fed her. Did I mess up? I know she doesn't need to eat middle of the night but I wanted her to go back to sleep.
Then to top things off, because I didn't change her middle of the night because I normally don't need to, her diaper leaked. So I had to completely change her and the mattress first thing in the morning. Ugh.
I know one wake-up is nothing compared to what some of you ladies deal with but I'm worried I might have encouraged bad behavior. Will this one time be OK? I think it takes multiple times to form a habit.

I think it's fine a few times. If she starts doing it consistently, then you might change something.
lilyelayne it just happens? H naturally stays up later (he also gets up later), sometimes it's adult time, last night my brother texted me and I responded so he called and we talked for 20 minutes, sometimes I am messing around on the Internet and don't realize what time it is.
Seen on fbook "when people said dogs were like children, they weren't kidding." Uh, #youmustnothavekids
My cousin is getting married in September and she keeps saying she wants to be pregnant by February. She keeps saying she already has one child (her lab) so anything else will be cake. That's when I just pretend I'm southern and break out a "Bless your heart"
dacora I think you are fine. She probably woke her self up rolling over and realized hey I am hungry. Once she is through this development phase and doesn't wake her self up on accident she will probably be fine. Like misshart00 said if it becomes more consistent I would worry about starting a bad habit.
WittyLittle wtf jake? Only rolling so mommy has to get up with you?
My husband got up with O this morning after making a deal with me yesterday that if I put him to bed he would do the morning routine. I'm pretty sure he regrets that after O went to sleep without a bottle, crying, or resisting in 10 minutes and was up at 520 am needing daddy time. #nomommyguiltaboutthatdeal
aggiebug I feel ya. I am exhausted this am and it wasn't like DD was up all night. So tired…. We just got up but I am already looking forward to nap time.
aggiebug and taberbtb I'm also exhausted. I feel ya! This whole getting to bed after midnight from work and waking up at 5 or a little before is draining.
dacora I think you're fine too. My pedi gave me a small lecture on not feeding MOTN now but if he's hungry and won't go back to sleep, whatever. He seems to go 2-3 nights where he will wake up and then back to STTN, so I haven't worried.
aggiebug I'm horrible at going to bed early. Half of my battle is getting DS to go to bed at a decent hour. I gotta work on him going to bed a little earlier than 9. By the time I get him down and ready for bed, it's 10pm and I have a 5am wake up for work. I have been so tired since I have gone back to work.
osumegs that is definitely a bless your heart moment. Yes a dog is a step forward in extra responsibilities and communication with your SO but, a baby is completely different.
dacora DS sleeps on his tummy and normally stays put but, last night he woke up because he rolled. I think the AC made his room too cold. When we camp in our trailer, DS sleeps in the same bed with me and will feed in the middle of the night because I am right there. He does not do this at home. I'm sure you are okay.
long day today- going to work and DH is picking me up and we are driving 5 hours for a camping trip. There is only one other family with a child going. I need a coffee iv already just thinking about this drive.
Hope you ladies have a nice day!
ETA my sentences got moved all over the place. This app is annoying.

My older cousin just got a puppy a few weeks ago and she was going on about how she was so exhausted and it was only day 3 of having him. I just smiled and let her talk. She has no idea the hell of a newborn.

I missed the memo that today was a casual dress day at the office. They sent out the email at 4, well I leave at 3:30! So everyone else is in jeans and I'm all dressed nice. Lame.
