Jules was just screaming in her sleep.... I was so worried (especially since she has a cold) I woke her up. She was sleep screaming for like 30-45 seconds. Most terrifying thing ever!
J has done this a few times already with me, but mostly while I'm still holding her rocking. What is this awfulness? I don't like it. She jumps and then scream cries.

Ditto to this! Most of the time she just goes right back to sleep, but last night it was all the way to awake and pissed off. And hungry. Of course, I had just pumped... Things got interesting. We got her back down, and DH and I just looked at each other like, what was that? She hasn't woken up at that time since the first few weeks.

What happened last night?!? My girl slept from 8:30-1:30, then was just.. UP. I fed her one side, rocked her to sleep, put her down at 2:30 and went out to the living room to pump the other side. Heard her making noise and woke up SO (yea, its his turn after ditching us for almost 24 hours) asked him could he help get her back down while I was pumping. 3AM he put her down thinking she's asleep but she wakes up crying as soon as she hits the mattress. By 3:30 she's frantic and he tries to give her a bottle, thinking maybe she's hungry again, and I have no milk since I pumped at 2:30. She refuses the bottle so I end up just nursing her to sleep. It took until 5 to get her back down... so essentially she slept 8:30-1:30, and then 5-7, then 8-10. That is not a night. WTF.

periwinkledaydreams, Hopefully that was just a fluke last night! fx for a better night for you!
Put DB down a bit earlier tonight since his naps were a bit shorter today. We've actually been venturing out more during nap times and counting on car naps to get him through. He's being a trooper (ie not screaming his ass off like he would have if we tried this a month ago), but I can tell he's not as rested. Last night he cried off & on for an hour to go to sleep. Overtired.
So down at 7pm tonight. Hope it doesn't bite me in the ass. But he fell right asleep, so that's a good sign...

LO is overtired and we're at my in-laws,so it's a perfect storm for not sleeping. At least our room has a ceiling fan and the air vent is open this time.

LO is still up--- we flew home today and were home by 9p, so only 30min after bedtime. I nursed him to sleep, and kept him on my lap for about 30min, and he woke up when I moved him. He's still up.
LO has fallen asleep during her last bottle the last two nights. I hold her for a half hour after because she won't burp while sleeping and I don't want her to spit up. She seems passed the f out, but as soon as I lower her into her crib her eyes are wide open and she's awake. I don't understand?! It only takes like 15 minutes to rock her back to sleep, but I just don't get how she goes from a floppy doll while I'm feeding her to a wide awake monkey.

Really wish I went to bed earlier. Missed the entire first (5 hour) stretch of sleep. Thankfully DB has been giving a long second stretch most of the time too...

DD went to bed a little later tonight than usual (7:45). We were at a craft fair and she was so interested in looking around that she pushed her afternoon nap so far back that she woke up at 6:15pm. Fed her, had a bit of tummy time, and then fed her again to top her off for the night. No idea what this will mean for MOTN wake ups....
LO wouldn't go to sleep until 10:30 (she's usually out by 9 - thankfully H took care of her), was up at 2:30 and now 5:30. I have a raging headache. I'm hoping she'll go back to sleep after this feeding; she likes to be up at 6 for whatever reason.
