Dear Eli,

I love you more than anything in the world.

However, I'm extremely exhausted and would be a much happier and more fun mommy if you would just sleep all night rather than wake me up multiple times.

Love,

Your Desperate Mommy

Awww, (((hugs)))

I saw your facebook status and wanted there to be a "dislike" button. I'm sorry!

I'm sorry.  Haley slept through the night early on, but we're paying for it now.  She's waking up almost every night, so I feel your pain.  I hope he starts sleeping through the night for you soon!

Silly Eli!!  I know how it is, Ellie was like that around 4 months too.  But he will get there and it will be fabulous!  Hang in there!

I've muttered this recently too.  Hope he starts soon!

I COMPLETELY feel your pain.  Nicholas pretty much always gets up twice each night and the accumulated sleep deprivation is just leaving  me really worn out.  I feel like I'm always on edge.  At this point, I think I'd be a happy mommy if he could even get up just once on a consistent basis.  It is exhausting.

Week 19 is a major, major, major mental milestone for babies - it's probably the biggest mental growth spurt they'll ever have.

Many babies start preparing for this between weeks 15 - 17 and it can last anywhere from a week to seven weeks.

It's hard, but I think it makes it easier to deal with when you know it's because they're growing and changing, that they aren't doing it personally just to piss you off.
