What I want most in the universe:

More than anything in the universe, what I really want is for someone I know/love/trust to come over and take the girls into a sound-proof room when they wake up around 7am, and entertain them for about...5 hours so I can sleep in!

Even if I had somewhere to send them, by the time I got them up and ready, I wouldn't be able to go back to sleep.  DH gets up at 5am every day for work and is only off on the days *I* work, so he can't do it.  Our families are all either OOT or having health problems.  It's still a fun little fantasy, though.

Both girls have been sick and E has been up literally all night for the past two nights.  I'm loving this "mom of 2" thing and wouldn't trade a second of it for anything, but after 6 months, I really feel due for a full night's sleep (ya hear me, sleep gods?!).

Anyone else ready to keel over today?

I am in the same boat.  Both girls were sleeping on me on the couch all night.  Macy was really fussy and I am exhausted.  I got DH up at 5:30 and made him take over but I could still hear them crying.  DH is not very good at soothing Macy.  I got a bed to myself for a couple hours but not much sleep.

Totally with you!  Maren sttn last Saturday night.  It was the one and only time she has.  Little tease.  I'm pooped.

We started Ferber on Thursday.  What I want most is a baby who doesn't cry at night.  He was crying even when I was going in to hold/rock/nurse him, so we figured he may as well cry in his crib and learn how to sleep.  3 nights in, and he's still crying (so am I).  I am so discouraged.
