Ugh Sleep

Ok, so far Benjamin has still been up every 2 hours to eat......except the last two nights he has not hardly slept at all.  Last night he slept in 20 minute increments then either wanted to nurse or play but he did not want to sleep.  Of course I kept it quiet and we did not play but he is crazy crabby!  I need some sleep.  He is currently 15 weeks 2 days....

    I feel for you, I've been in the same boat with lack of sleep albeit not that extreme.  DS woke up every hour, and that about killed me because I can't just magically fall back to sleep then get back up 20 mins later.

    Do you still swaddle him?  Here's to hoping you can get a nap in today and tonight will be better for you.

  • We have not swaddled him for over 1 1/2 months because he woke himself up trying to get his hands free.  So then we tried swaddling just his body and he would scream until we unwrapped him.... I felt like a bad mommy last night and he was in his swing the majority of the night, it was the only thing that calmed him down.  He LOVES to sleep in his swing but I am not a fan...

  • To add to this I think he may be teething.  He has been drooling like CRAZY and he loves to chew on my hand and he bites HARD.  He is doing the same to his teething toys too.
