Help me please

in October 2012 Moms
She was up crying 10 times last night. Every hour. I fed her 5 times, gave Tylenol in case it is teething, rocked, tried to let her sleep in bed with me, I tried everything I could think of. I did not sleep last night and now here I am at work half disheveled. I want to give her back. Help me.

    I just noticed I'm wearing an old ratty vest that doesn't fit anymore and flip flops. I can't go in lab in flip flops.

    I tugged her ears and it didn't make her wince. She has a checkup tomorrow so I can ask.

    Ibuprofen. Try that instead of Tylenol. DS1 stopped responding to Tylenol and Ibuprofen was the only thing that worked. At 6 months with DS2 I went straight to Advil instead of using Tylenol. I've only given it to him a few times but it has always helped.

    Also bad sleep the last few nights here.  Last night was up at 3:15 and I tried to let him self-soothe and he just cried hysterically even after I finally went in there.  Exhausted AND feeling like worst mom ever.  I'm thinking teeth plus sleep regression from all the new stuff he is learning.

    I can't even do arithmetic today, this is a whole new level of exhaustion.

    Thanks for the support ladies.

    I'm so sorry. I know this all too well. It's a level of sleep deprivation that I think only a person w a baby can understand bc no sane person would let themselves get this far gone. You feel totally insane.

    I'm considering asking to sleep in the nurse's office.  High school flashback.

    Is there a 9 month growth spurt?

    Because last night reminded me of that nightmare 3-week-old fiasco.

    I have often found that a really bad night is followed by a good night. I hope you get your good night tonight. Hugs.

    My LO has been having similar nights.  Last night he even refused to nurse!  He never does that!  The screamfest lasted two hours.  I am beyond exhausted as well.  I just keep on thinking about a comment posted here on the bump, "My worse night is probably someone else's best night".

    So sorry beanz! I have total empathy for you we are going through the same thing, it has been the worst two weeks ever!  Thank god I dont work right now because I wouldnt function, but hubs got a verbal warning yesterday for being late everyday because we have been up all night with the baby.

    Yes, I think it was @ThisisBrea who said that.  I kept thinking this over and over last night every time I rolled back out of bed...

    This was true for us as well. We use Motrin and it works like a charm. However, we've had nights like this too. I feel for you. Working and sleep deprivation are not good combos.
