Is anyone else dealing with this? It is no bueno. Between teething, seperation anxiety, his little body developing so much, etc the kid WILL NOT sleep through the night anymore.
He will only stay asleep if he is cuddled against me. Dont get me wrong, I love the extra snuggles, but Mommy needs her space sometimes (and the baby is becoming quite the cockblock this week!).
Re: sleep regression
indeed.
my night last night went like this:
7:15 - nurse baby
7:30 - put baby down
7:35 - 3yo bathtime
8:00 - 3yo stories
8:30 - lie down with 3yo. fall asleep
1:30am - wake to baby crying (in the same room where I'm still sleeping with 3yo)
1:30am - 5:30am - bring baby to my and dh's bed. baby is latched on. I am sleeping on and off.
5:30am - baby is awake. I ask dh to get up with him so I can have 20 minutes of sleeping without a child next to me.
I do love the snuggles with BOTH of them... but my neck is all effed up now and the sleep just isn't quite as good.
I'm not anti-CIO, but with all these teeth coming through, plus his itchy eczema... I'm realllly reluctant to let him cry when there is a good chance he's legitimately uncomfortable. ACK!
