Well DS gave me two 8+ hour stretches of sleep two nights in a row. But I still told myself that it wasn't going to keep happening. Glad I kept my expectations low so that I wasn't disappointed when he woke up after 6 hours just now!
I've been awake for an hour for no reason. DS is not awake. I can't fall back asleep because I'm very warm. I've been rolling from one side of the bed to the other to sleep on the cold side. Not working
Giving likes for support. I have been struggling with insomnia even though S is sleeping better. Last night he didn't want to go to sleep. At least we slept in is.
I ended up being awake for 2.5 hours in the MOTN. Woke around 1:15, tossed and turned, DS woke up at 2:30ish so I nursed him, then continued to toss and turn til almost 4:00. DS woke again at 5:00ish to nurse again. I've been up since then. Le sigh...

Me too. Last night I was up until 2am just randomly organizing things in the nursery. Wtf is wrong with me?!

I've wondered that too. I wonder if it's hormonal. I'll spend hours on Pinterest after he goes to sleep.
LO had her 2 month shots yesterday and spent the entire day comfort nursing again. At one point I handed her off to H and left the room to get a drink. She watched me go and the second she couldn't see me, she burst out screaming hysterically! It was very flattering (if that's the right word to use) and one of the first times she's shown a very obvious preference for me. Well anyways, right now she keeps crying out in her sleep, so no rest for me. LOVE two month shots!
Nice! Were you able to sleep that whole time too? DS only gave me those two nights of 8 hours, then went back to his normal 5-6 stretch and 2.5-3 stretch.
Last week M was up every couple of hours to nurse. Last night I woke up engorged because he STTN (8 hours). I pumped 12 oz! When he woke up an hour later he ate 4 oz then fell back asleep. So strange because before last week he would STTN but I wouldn't be engorged. Hopefully it evens out soon.

Nope, I didn't go to bed until about midnight. DH and I were finishing OITNB!
He's such a good sleeper and has been from the start, I'm dreading the 4 month regression.
+1 Of course the 4 month regression is scheduled to hit the shananagins household just in time for me to go back to work. Uh oh.
My good little sleeper is giving me a taste of things to come this week. He was up at 2 to eat last night, and then was wide awake at 5am having his own little party that was apparently hilarious. He was laughing like a maniac And now he's wide awake and laughing at me as I'm trying to get him to go down. Should be a fun night... Already plotting a way to get my hands on a latte in the morning!
I'm at a family reunion (DH's family), and DS needed a nap. I put him in the swing in the room we are staying it, and was like "oh I will just take a quick nap with him." Three hours later...whoops! So I got up, pumped, got ready for bed, woke DS to feed him, and now back in bed. Except now I'm not tired

We are still at 90 minute stretches only most nights. I feel like this is forever and wonder what on earth it will take for LO to sleep for longer. The lack of sleep is starting to hit harder lately : (

I'm sorry! Until you get longer stretches, do you have any family or could you hire a sitter to relieve you for an hour or two during the day so you can nap? Sometimes the nap during the day can make it bearable.

I usually nap on the days that DD is at pre-school, while LO does and that helps. It's just so hard when he's up every 90 minutes and then awake for the day (only because of bad wind) at 5.00am. Hate willing this part of his life to move faster but I'm reading to be done with wind and to get more sleep!
Up at 2am dealing with low grade fever and gassiness from 2 mo shots yesterday. Is gassiness an actual symptom or unrelated? He seems like he's in pain and then squirms one out. It's so sad

Second night in a row the baby has slept from 8:30-2:30. Please let this be the new norm. Last night he stayed diwn from 3:00-5:00 after nursing. Praying for a repeat.
I just woke up because my boobs hurt so bad and were leaking. DS is still sleeping. I had to get up and pump to get some relief. I'm really nervous that I'm getting mastitis or something, which would be awful because my sister's wedding is Saturday!!

LO gave us two nights in a row of 4 and then 5 hours sleep up front! It was such a relief and gave us hope we're on the improve. Then he got sick and last night he woke every two hours at the most. Today he has screamed in pain for hours and hours. I'm not sure how much is sickness, how much is constipation and how much is tiredness but I'm pretty sure our long sleeps are gone again for now.
I didn't want to jinx it, so I didn't post earlier. But I think LO is sleeping through the night! Past three days she's gone from 10-5! It's heaven after all those 2 hour nights!
