Sleep Vent

You know what happens when you take it for granted when your baby STTN early on? 

You hit a year and it all goes downhill.  K has been waking up almost every single night.  I am a zombie.  We did CIO a while back and it was a miracle, now she goes down wonderfully.  But she wakes up between 2 am and 6am and needs cuddles and sometimes a bottle before she goes back asleep. 

I am so freaking tired.  I swear my concealer just laughs at me know when I try to hide my circles.

That is all.

Re: Sleep Vent

  • I'm so sorry you're not sleeping well! I don't have any advice to offer, only sympathy (pregnancy has done NOTHING to help my sleep)! I hope it gets better soon.

  • Right there with you.  Except it was 6-7 months for us and still going on.  I was up at 2, 4, 5, and 6 last night...she wants to nurse all night long.

    Hopefully it is just a milestone (or teeth) that you get through quickly.

  • I can relate.  Hayden was a rockin' sleeper at 4-6 months old.  It has never been the same since.

  • I'm so sorry! Every so often Max has a spurt of waking during the night. Once it's happened for a night or two in a row, I'm all business..I go into his room, just use a flashlight so I don't have to turn on his light, check his diaper on his bedroom floor, give him a hug and tell him "I love you, it's time to sleep" and put him back in the crib. Could you try something like that and then do CIO or Ferber until she falls back asleep? I know everyone is different so feel free to ignore if that doesn't seem like it would work for you guys.

    You have my sympathy! Sleep deprivation sucks big time, especially when you have to go to work and can't take a nap yourself.

  • Ella is a very moody teether and we had the same thing happen from 13-16 months on and off. Since she's been sttn and taking a 3-4 hour nap, which I guess makes up for it! Hang in there!

  • I'm right there with you! I was able to prepare myself and knew what to expect with a newborn. W has always been a great sleeper til recently, but that's down the crapper. It's awful getting no sleep after getting used to mostly restful nights. I hope K is just going through a short adjustment period. It sucks :(
