Does anyone else enjoy night time feedings?

adri77 · January 2012

They don't bother me at all right now, and I actually enjoy them, it's like our own private time together. It's almost the ONLY time I get alone with her, without the boys literally climbing all over me (and her)as I feed her. Also, I think I'm trying to cherish it b/c I know she's my last baby. DS2 didn't sleep through the night till he was 1, and I thought I was going to loose my mind! And then several months after he began sleeping through the night, i found myself missing our intimate nightly nursing sessions.....I know I'll miss them even more when this little peanut is done with them!!!

I really enjoy BF because it's just the two of us in his nursery and it's our special quiet time. I joked with DH last night that if Phin woke up before 3 a.m., then it was DH's "turn to feed because Phin's mama needed some sleep!" Phin woke at 3 a.m. on the dot and DH offered to give him a bottle, but I launched myself out of bed and declined his offer. I was somewhat surprised at myself because I was exhausted, but that is "our time."

I don't really mind them as long as there are only 2 of them Wink

. Now in 11 days when I go back to work, I will be praying for just one of them.

I don't mind but I also don't get out of bed :P

I'm starting to like them now that there's usually just one and I feel more confident that she'll go right back to sleep (albeit with a lot of grunting). Plus it's one of the only times she'll latch on right away and go to town with no struggling! Plus she's extra sweet and cuddly!

I like them now that there are less. DS is so smiley when he wakes up

Ditto this!

I like them but it's a love/hate. I'm seriously looking forward to the day I get a solid sleep again, but I'm also trying to look at it as a "he's only young once" thing

eta - Like the pp I like it when there's one of them. On the nights he wakes up a second time, which is about a 50/50 right now, I cringe imagining going to work the next morning.

Agree with the PPs. I don't mind them now, but the second one will be brutal when I go back to work. Right now the second one is one to two hours before my alarm will go off. I probably won't even be able to go back to sleep. <sigh> but I will probably miss them when they end!
