So we were up all night. So much for progress. He woke up 8 times in the first three hours and then I stopped keeping track. Something was up, but I don't know what. I tried EVERYTHING - walking, bouncing, patting, binky, nursing, cuddling, putting him in my bed, holding him while he slept, and at 2:30 am I even took him for a half hour drive! We finally got to sleep from 3:30-5:15 and 5:30-6:45.
I'm not giving up, though. I still plan to work on the NCSS stuff. AUGH!!!!
Anyway, I lost my cool a couple times last night, and this is not the first time this has happened, so I am finally going to suck it up and go talk to my midwife about getting on something for PPD.
Back to working at home. Or, rather, about to start working at home. I hope I can accomplish something today. I napped when Lennon took his first nap and I am still pretty tired. My temptation is just to stay online and post on bulletin boards and play on facebook. I hope I can motivate myself to at least start on the big bag of stuff I brought home!
8 times in three hours?! Something is most definitely up. Hang in there and do whatever you need to take care of yourself. You're a great mom!
