Unlike last year, I don’t have any life-altering announcements to make. But Carolyn did play her very first April fool’s joke on me at 3:30 this morning, when she woke up and refused to go back to sleep until 5. Ugh. I was just getting used to sleeping through the night again – she’s been doing this for a whole week – and that made it even harder to drag myself out of bed six times in 90 minutes. I could have (and maybe should have?) just brought her back to bed, but she sleeps so much better in her crib now, and I was afraid she’d wake up tomorrow night too expecting to sleep in the big bed.
Hopefully tonight will be better…
Brogan has been doing the waking up thing too!! How frustrating. He’s been sleeping straight through since seven weeks and now this?? He’s awake and/or up at least once, often twice, a night lately. Sometimes I can pop his soother back in and he’s fine but other times that doesn’t work. The other night he was up from 2:30 until 4:45!! Argh! I think it may be partly due to the fact that he creeps so quickly in his crib (no matter how many times I drag him down) and then he gets stuck in the upper corner, rolls onto his back, and there he stays unable to roll back over or move. This morning I fed him at 2 and then at 4:30ish brought him into bed where we managed to eke out another hour and a half.
Think we can hang in?
