The kind of week I'm having...
« on: January 24, 2012, 03:52:31 PM »
Just wanted to vent. See if anypony out there is having the same kind of time I'm having. My son is 10 weeks old and one of the biggest joys of my life. I love ALL my kids, make no mistake. I'd die for them.


But oh. my. WORD. This kid won't let me sleeeeeeeeep!  :yikes:  He teases me! Last week he was sleeping 6+ hour stretches at night, but then he hit another growth spurt and we're back to feeding every 3 hours. It feels like a psycho mind game, to torture me and see if I survive. I know it's not that, but it feels that way.  He's my third kid, you'd think I'd remember this part and mentally prepare myself for it, but every time I forget just how crazy I get.


This about sums it up:

Baaahaaaa I love that photo. Sorry you are not getting sleep. My neighbor is going through this.  She is so tired she thinks she is the walking dead at this point.  I can't imagine how hard it is. I never had kids.  Hang in there.

It'll get better then for some strange reason you'll start wishing he was a baby again. Everyone I know with kids always wish their's was a baby again. I don't get it but I suppose you should enjoy it while it lasts.

Thanks, me too. I pray for it every night! It's nice to be on here while I'm feeding him and feel the pony love. :lovey:

Feel your pain....I had to break down by the third month and learn to sleep in a recliner so I could hold him...for about 2 months it was the ONLY way I'd get to sleep upwards of 6 hours a night.

Eventually they sleep through the night but each kid sets their own pace for when...in the meantime mommy just endures.

I know the feeling <3

Just know that hes not doing it on purpose, even though it might seem like it.  Its normal and natural.

Fingers crossed it will pass by soon<3
