Up for 2 at 2:40. He woke up at 11 crying. Didn't need a diaper, didn't want a bottle or to be rocked or held or left alone. Just cried and I couldn't figure out why. I held him until he fell asleep anyway.
This time is just a quick bottle and he's asleep again--with a big grin on his face. Not sure what's going on with him.
I've lost count. I don't think I've slept for more than 20 min at a time. He's finally sleeping and I'm setting the alarm to get back up at 3 to switch back to TPN.
Fuck you, fungus. Go play somewhere else.

We are impatiently awaiting the day we can say goodbye to his girlfriend Ivy for good.
Scratch that. He was just kidding about the finally being asleep part.

Up here too. I think Hunter is having bladder spasms. He woke up crying a few times last night. I just gave him a medication to stop them, so we'll see if that helps.
@asbromle With you on the stiff neck and stuffy baby. And sleep? What is this phenomenon you describe? I was only up 5 times last night, but that's because there weren't very many opportunities to rest inbetween wakings. It's more like, we are up all night with sporadic periods of rest.
Oh man. The past four months have been BRUTAL. last night she was up 5 times from 7:30-9 and then every two hours after that. I'll take some of that coffee. Lots of it!

I an with ya @hindihl now that feedings take less time, using my phone only makes the wakeup last longer. Here's hoping these ninjas sleep sometime soon!!

My neck hurts from sitting at an incline all night with a stuffy baby that doesn't ever sleep, never really has slept and probably never will sleep.
I'll take some of that coffee. Lots of it!
