Up for first feed at 2 am - got about 4 hours ... It's unusually hot here and LO seems fine but I'm worried he's overly warm so I'm staring at him worried and he's sleeping. I should sleep

J woke up after 5 hours,wonderful:-). Now we can't get her back to sleep. She is just laying in one of our arms eyes wide open. If we put her down she makes all kinds of loud noises. Please babygirl go back to sleep!!

Made a big mistake tonight trying to think ahead. J ate at 6 pm then fell asleep and was still asleep at midnight, so we decided to wake him and feed him, and thought he would go back to sleep. Right? Wrong. He finally went back down around 2 then was back up at 430. Just got him back down, hoping he is good for a few hours.
Kiddo was on the boob, with diaper change breaks, from 5:30 to 9. He'd just sit there with the boob in his mouth if he wasn't eating and would cry when not on it. Pacifier was not an acceptable sub. I feel like it's been like this all day - guess our growth spurt isn't over. He's asleep as of 9:30. I'm hoping for sleep tonight in good chunks. FX for all of us!!
My little guy did the exact same thing last night. Barely ate, but just wanted to be on the boob.
DH just tried to negotiate sleep with me. He usually does the diaper change (5 min tops) then I nurse (50 + min.). He just offered to "let" me sleep more when DS1 gets up if I do this diaper change. I may have laughed at him. Then kindly (ok, I wasn't really kind about it) reminded him there is no negotiating as I always have the upper hand and damn straight I will be sleeping for the measly 30 mins I might get if I can fall back asleep by the time he and DS1 actually do go downstairs (with DS1 jumping on me and talking to me until DH rolls his ass out of bed.) Nice little refresher course for him on not picking that battle with me. In the immortal words of Cher Horowitz... As if. ?
