DB has been awake from 3:15 - 8, other than a 20 minute car nap. I feel like a terrible mom for keeping him up, but he just will not nap when we're out of the house!
He zonked out as soon as I swaddled him and put him in the crib so here's hoping for a good night!

Had DD's lip tie clipped this morning, in nervous as to how this will influence night time sleep...I'm hoping she's not uncomfortable/ will give us the same sleep schedule she's been giving us.

carolyngrace, I hope you can get him back to sleep soon and get some rest!
M has slept more today than any day since he's been born. Eats and falls asleep for 3 hours, repeat. I guess we shall see if this messes up his night time sleep or if he continues to be so good. I'm sure Ill jinx it - but definitely isn't acting like my colicky baby today.
Thank you everyone who sent positive wishes to my mom. ❤️

holliberry28 FX DB continues the good sleep throughout the night! carolyngrace hopefully your LO goes down again quickly and stays asleep for a good stretch!
My DD is weird about bedtime- she likes to be snuggled, to a point. To actually fall asleep she does better if we snuggle a bit after nursing and then I put her down in the bassinet to finish falling asleep.
Currently listening to her settle and grunt her way to a deep sleep.....I hope.

J had a choking episode last night. Not sure either H or I slept more than 3 or 4 hours. We put him in the pnp in our room so we would hear him better, and he tossed and turned all night.
He has been sleeping quite a bit this afternoon and evening, probably exhaustion from not sleeping much yesterday or last night. Hoping he sleeps well tonight, otherwise I am going to need a crap ton of caffeine tomorrow.

C slept for all of an hour give or take today from like 10:00 am to 9pm!! She would fall asleep for like 15-20 mins at a time and wake up. We are trying to transition her to sleeping in her crib because she goes to day care in 2 weeks and that's where they will put her. I'm having serious anxiety about how she will sleep there since they don't swaddle or really want them to sleep in a bouncy. I'm lying awake at night thinking about her crying all day . I hope she sleeps well tonight after being up all day.

Wake up #1- complete.
I noticed that normally LO eats off of both sides during the day, but the last feed before bed she usually only takes one side and falls asleep. My boobs are like rock hard when I get up for the first feed and the one that did get eaten before bedtime literally feels like it's going to explode!! I'm thinking I'll add in a pump right before bed tomorrow night.

AW: My baby took a bottle today! I was feeling like she never would after trying four times so I'm pleased this is another of those things that seems short after it's happened and the fifth time was the charm.
I feel like I was just handed my life back! The possibilities are endless!
We transitioned H to the nursery tonight! I swear that DH has been up all night staring at the monitor while I, the heartless mommy, slept like a rock. She gave us the longest stretch she ever has - 5 hours! - from 10:30-3:30 and now she's already back to sleep after a small bottle. FX she stays asleep for another 2.5 hours...I'd like to at least make it past 6am. If so I'll call Operation Nursery a rousing success....at least for tonight

Breastfeeding anymore is so noisey. She pulls herself off, whines, then wont latch. I have yet to breastfeed in public BC it always ends in her screaming somehow..thought it was suppose to calm her down! Anyway. We're up again BC dad makes her sleep when he watches her during the day so "he can do stuff" such as clean/not deal with her. Makes my nights rough. Lol
Eta: After I wrote that she latched like a champ and is now peaceful and sleepy. Strange child. Ha!
315 and we're wide awake...awesome...of course DH is snoring away in the bedroom. Our roku remote is not paired to the box so I'm stuck watching regular antenna tv on some cbs news show...

baytosa2013 please try not to worry about the daycare transition too much. If you want her to start sleeping in the crib that's fine but I wouldn't transition her just for the sake of daycare. My DD slept in the crib at daycare perfectly fine even though she rarely ever slept there at home. Daycare teachers have tricks up their sleeves for this sort of thing plus all of the stimulation there will help wear her out.
Cole slept from 9-3:35, his longest stretch yet! He's changed and fed and sleeping in my arms again. I probably shouldn't get too used to this, I'm sure he won't do it again

Here I am again, not sleeping. DD has been sleeping since 8:30-it's 3:30 now-and only woke up a few times here and there to eat, but stayed practically asleep during the whole process. It's a dream come true, and instead of enjoying it by sleeping, for some reason I am staying awake. I think it's that self-defeating behaviour I have where I am just waiting for her to wake up and nurse and fuss and make my life difficult for hours on end. Obviously the smart thing to do would be to sleep in preparation in case that does happen but nope, I always just stay up waiting. >_< it does NOT help that DH woke me up at 10 to see if I wanted to follow through on our evening plans. I need to remind him that I Never want to be woken up. My poor body is so used to not sleeping normally that I haven't been able to sleep since. Or I have and my even poorer mind doesn't even remember. I'm scared that I honestly can't remember which it is.

Thanks Widget123. She definitely is not taking to the crib just yet. As soon as I put her down, her eyes will snap open and she's looking all around because its not familiar to her. She loves her bouncy. I think in probably going to be up worrying about everything daycare related because I really just don't want her to go but we have no choice. This weekend going to be ROUGH!
After her being up all day she slept from 9:30 to 4:30 and went right back down just before 5. It's 6:30 and she's still sleeping. I of course was wide awake again so I just decided to get up, shower, have coffee, do laundry, feed the cats and clean the guest bathroom. I'll nap later :/
Well she slept from 1:30 on but I woke up at 5 in horrible pain and am now in the ER with what they think is my gallbladder. They're trying to get a pump for my poor engorged self.

Been there, gallbladder issues are no joke! Hope you feel better soon!

LO slept pretty well, once he went down. Some fussing right around 3 but we solved that with a dream feed and a ninja diaper change abc he's asleep still. My DH though hasn't been sleeping, has horrible sleep habits and kept me up all night. Both DH and baby fight sleep but are out once they do sleep. At about 11:30 I was nursing a fussy baby and had a "I can't sleep" DH spooning us and suddenly they were both snoring and I was stuck in an awkward position because I didn't want to wake either up... Any tips on sleep training a 30 something?
