Babies: 0 - 3 Months

2ND CHILD= NO SLEEP

Good morning:

Is it morning or night?  I can't even tell anymore!  DS was a sleeping dream when he was an infant.  Also, I was able to sleep in the late morning if he decided to go back to sleep.

I am working a full time job from home.  DS is going through the terrible 2's, and figured out how to get out of his crib yesterday, super cool.  And DD decided this week that she is going to get on a schedule where she wakes up at 4:45 am, every morning.  Eat.  And then happily stay awake for the morning.  She starts to go back to sleep around 7:30, which is super because by then DS is in full force, and my full work day is getting started. 

Will I ever sleep again for more than 4 hours a night??

Good heavens!

  • Lol that's why when I see the "legitimate work from home jobs?" posts on the pregnancy boards I tell them it's way harder than it sounds!!

  • Yes you will sleep again-maybe in 2 or 3 years!  Then you'll think it's a good time to try for a third and then you never will sleep again!!

    Seriously, it does get better.  My second had the 4am wakeup until she was around 8 months.  It finally went away.  My older two are 4 and 6 and prior to this baby  I'd been getting a full night's sleep and loving it.  

    Now back to the night time wakings and early mornings.   

  • Yikes! I am thankful that we just have to worry about DS2 at night. But it will get better one day I'm sure! GL!
