Who's Up?

First feeding here.....hoping its the only one! Simon had been going 6-7 hours then 3-4 hours with just one feeding for a while. Then we tried a little earlier bed time (8 instead of 9pm), and that was enough to add a second MOTN feed. So tonight I went back to 9pm for selfish seasons. :) Here's hoping!

Who else is around?

Re: Who's Up?

  • I am pumping while DH gives a bottle. Of all the times for sleep regression, it's when I can't physically nurse so everyone in the house is partying right now!
  • Loading the player...
  • I'm here. First feeding also. We've been getting 5-6hr stretches since putting Cameron in his crib and it feels glorious!

  • Aaaand now I am pumping. As much as it sucks to be up any longer than necessary, I started doing my one daily pumping session in the MOTN because I'm engorged anyway, so I get more milk for my time. Woot!

  • I'm here. Just finished feeding. Had a growth spurt the past few days that had him feeding every hour all night. Now he's over it, and I can't go back to sleep. >.<

  • I'm awake but LO isn't. First night in her own room and I'm still a little nervous.... Needless to say I am ordering a snuza in the morning!

    On the few occasions when DS goes to sleep easily, we are always a tiny bit paranoid and checking to make sure he is still breathing. So far so good, lol.

  • Up for the first feeding as well. We pushed back his bedtime last night to 9 instead of 8. Usually he's up at 2 am regardless but tonight he gave me the extra hour. I would prefer he keep this up :). Hopefully this will be his only feeding before we are up for the day... FX.

    @scarlettV that feeding every hour sucks!!! I'm glad your LO is over it... Hopefully you can start getting some sleep soon.
  • Here! Just got done nursing and LO is trying to get comfortable in his crib. Watching him is always interesting! He's talking up a storm and I see a arm escaped the swaddle.

  • We are also up! Hoping we are able to easily head back to bed after! This momma is sleepy! (:|
  • @nrg2020 have you tried baby massage? Also a warm compress on the back helps I hear.

    I do my one pumping session in the motn as well. It's actually nice to do it quietly too without a crying LO or dh needing something lol

     

  • @nrg2020 poor baby:( Jack was like that one night, I felt so bad. No more broccoli for me:(

    Are you nursing? I found that if I take similicon / aka gass ex it helps him a while lot and I'm not bloated and gassy either. You can buy them super cheap at Walmart or target.

    I do massage, leg pumps, bringing legs up and pressing them which releases the gas. She just won't sleep longer than an hour with out waking again.
    My LO farts often during tummy time. Maybe that can help?

    I'm up. LO was asleep by 830 and woke up at 1130 (which is rare). So this the second motn feeding for us. I'm tired and bummed I go back to work on Monday.

    I was wondering if I could take that to help her! Thank you.
    No problem! Pm me in a week to let me know if it helps:)

    Also I'm out ladies! Going back to bed after a hour of someone who thought it was "play time" and not "sleep time". Kinda my own fault though... I forgot to turn on damn slumber buddy and it's stupid water noise. It's bittersweet,while I hate the noise it's become his safe/ soothing noise. I turn it on and he's out in less than 5 minutes.

  • Here. LO was up at 1:30 for a feeding which sucked but it was about 5 min long. This is the normal time so I'm happy with this!! I just need like 2 more hours, usually her sleep after this isn't the best. So happy it's Friday though! I need the weekend with my DH, it felt like a long week!

  • I'm up. Gave up on sleeping - everyone has been up all night with this crazy wind / rain storm. It's like a hurricane no one told me about
  • Ugh LO caught my cold. His coughing and sneezing is so sad. I wish there was more I could do to help him.
  • I am awake but the whole house is sleeping. I got a bit upset with DH so I am on the couch with LO. Maybe sleep will come soon. Otherwise it will be another netflix night.

    Oh no! Hope everything is ok!

    @momanddad+3, I'm sorry to hear about your dad, FX that he responds well to treatment!

    I'm up for the second feeding. Apparently LO did not get the message that he was supposed to sleep another hour or two! Oh well.

    Up. Lo is always awake with gas. I don't know what to do anymore.

    I don't know much about it but it might be worth looking into the windi. It's made by the same co that make the nose frida. It's a release valve... Seems kind of weird but in a desperate situation might be worth looking in to. There was a thread about it a while back.
  • @momanddad+3 sorry to hear about your father. Your family is in my T&Ps. I hope the treatment works well for him.
  • My LO consistently eats at 10, 1, 3, and 5 give or take thirty minutes... I pray for 4 hour stretches.
  • I'm up for the second feeding Mariah had been going to bed around 11 & then waking at 6. Last night she went down at 9 she woke up at 2 & here we are at 6. Hopefully she keeps it up 8->

  • I'm seriously jealous of you with los that sleep so much. We're still up every 2 hours all night long.....
  • @boothbaby yeah things are alright. DD has developed a habit of being super fussy in the evenings until she goes down. We have been taking turns trying to get her down, especially since I am getting over being sick. Last night nothing was working not even the boob. DH got so upset that he was hitting things while hokding her. I decided it was enough and just took her for the night. She just wanted to be comforted it isnt her fault. Anyway sorry that was so long.
    um, i would be super nervous about leaving the baby alone with him if I were you. That sentence has so many red flags.
