This feeding has crossed the four hour mark...I just want to sleep.:.zzzzz
Approaching 5 hrs...is this a growth spurt? Auri is 11 days old. She sleeps in her PNP just fine usually but tonight won't. She keeps nursing and falling asleep after 5 min...abs then when I put her down she wakes up mad.

+1 to the longer stretch starting early in the night. She has been fighting sleep so much lately that I let her fall asleep on me on the couch after our last feeding and it's been hours now. I want to go to bed! The kicker is I need to pump still since DH is going to bottle feed her once she wakes up.
I asked stupid DH to stupid get up and change her stupid diaper when she started squawking and I could hear him talking and playing with her in her room before he brought her in to me. And now she's wide awake and he's asleep. I should be grateful that he's willing to get up but for reals???
M had a rough time for his MOTN feeding. Spit up several times. He's going to sleep in the RnP for the rest of the night so it's a couch night for me. Good thing we have a very comfortable couch.

How do you guys do the cradle hold without supporting your boob? This is why I have to do cross cradle 95% of the time. Otherwise his head flops around.

I keep telling my DH to not engage with E in the MOTN, but I hear him doing the same as yourDH. Have you told him it is a no-no?
I am so hungry! I don't want to go downstairs for food though. I keep almonds up in the bedroom for snacking but I feel like I could eat a whole pizza or something!
H is on his 5th hour of continuous sleep. C needs to be burped, held upright and finagled back to sleep. Why do I feel guilty about waking him up? I haven't had a 5 hour stretch of sleep in months. I don't know why I value his sleep more then my own.

Right now my left arm is asleep and dying, but i have a very small pillow under his head. He is getting to heavy for this, i lean back after i get him latched, and reading his head on my thigh. With knees bent.

The nose frida is the best thing ever invented. J hasn't eaten much today, and seemed like he was choking and struggling. Duh...congestion. Took me until a couple of hours ago to use the nose frida, then he ate a whole bottle and conked out. I'm on the couch because he sleeps better in the swing. My poor back.
Have to get up in 40 minutes. So tired. But the baby just fell asleep against my boob and I'm afraid I might wake him back up if I move him. My plan is to nurse him immediately before we leave for the airport. That should get us to takeoff.
This week I've been getting about 5 hour stretches of sleep and it has been amazing... Only realized a few days ago I'm actually consistently dreaming again.
FX LO likes it and it buys me some time during the day. He has the Baby Bjorn bouncer, but we more use it to bring him in the bathroom when we're showering and stuff like that.

Having a rough night. DS won't stop crying. Eat cry, change diaper cry, sit in rock and play, cry, sit on mommys chest, cry. 2 hours of sleep so far. I hurt all over and am to the point of tears myself. Let's sleep Bebe please
Dd slept from 10:30-3:30, woke up, ate, diaper change, ate other side, swaddled, patted and put back in pack and play asleep...for 5 minutes. I patted, walked, burped, fed again, no dice. At 5 I gave up and carried her out to the living room. On the way she fell asleep on my shoulder. She made the transfer to the swing and is still asleep, but I am up for the day. 4:30 I am OK for the day, but 3:30...that is just too early to get up and still be a functioning adult.
