bedtime: 6:45 p.m.
wake: 8:15 p.m... cry cry cry. I finally go in to soothe you. You keep crying. Dad goes in to soothe you, you go right back to sleep. It is 9:00.
(I'm in bed: 9:30)
wake: 10:38 p.m. I feed you. Back to bed for both of us.
wake: 12:15 a.m. Dad's turn. He goes in to soothe you, no feeding. Back to sleep after about 15 minutes.
wake: 2:30 a.m. I let you cry a bit. This isn't your normal time to eat. At 2:50, i feed you. Back to bed for both of us.
wake: 4:15 a.m. Really? Really, Noah? Dad's turn. Option- go soothe or see if he can do it himself. dad chooses to wait. dad falls back asleep. I am in and out, mostly in, and finally, at 4:55, no dad relief in sight, I go feed him. Then back to bed again for both of us.
wake: 6:15 a.m. Guess we begin the morning routine early.
...where's the little boy who only wakes at 10 and 4? I miss him.

OH YUCK!!!! I hate when schedules go funky. If you find a fix for this horrible issue - please let me know. It's something Kason has been doing lately. These kids are lucky they're so cute!!!
This sounds familiar. If you find the little boy who sleeps, please look for a little girl with him. She may belong to me!!!
Growth spurt? Teething? I NEED my sleep, so I totally empathize with ya. Good luck!
Don't you worry one bit Mom! He's probably growing or teething or something and he'll go back to his usual self soon! ;) It's so hard to think of that at 1:00 in the morning though (and 2 and 3 and 4...*sigh*). I wish you all good sleep tonight!
Sorry- I don't have any motherly advice to give- just a sisterly shoulder to cry on when frustration finally sets in. Honestly, whether it be 2 or 3 or 4 in the morning, if during one of those tiring tirades you just want someone to vent to or someone to share your sorrow or pain, I'm there. Call me.
lots of love!
I'm with ya,
Can't I just get one nights full sleep???
