I've given up!!! He's been crying since 1am and it's now 4am, around 3 I started crying with him....so now we're just sitting here very puffy and red, almost calm then the damn dog passes his reflection in the mirror & freaks out barking!!!! Now we're back crying
Aw hang in there. Hopefully he will cry it out soon and fall asleep. Our dog is also a barker and wakes baby...grrr so annoying!

Finally got slightly comfortable in the glider. Migraines have been hitting me the last 2 wks, and I'm starting to deduce its from my posture too not just dehydration/lack of sleep. Peanut has been up every 1.5 hrs since 830 and my back & the back of my neck are killing me. So disappointed, especially since his grandpa fed him a 4oz bottle at 730!!! And he ate all of it! Why is it, it's so easier for 3 hr splits during the day- but we can't go longer than 1.5 hrs for sleep the last 2 nights??? He fed for 9 min and is now quietly asleep on my chest. The bed is 5 ft away and I can't get up.
Here with you @AliKay20. Had pp ob appt on Thurs, she approved extending my disability another 2 wks for pp/mental health/abdomen care since I work an extremely physically demanding environment (law enforcement). Called my employer & they said, Nope wrong paperwork she needs this one.... That was friday, and I'm now dreading trying to jump through hoops today just to get their paper signed based on how it was just getting my leave smoothed out in the first place. I was in tears 4 wks ago, because they told me After he was born oh sorry we lost the pprwork then no its incomplete. When I had originally turned it in and received approval in June to begin maternity leave July 5. Now I'm so anxious I may say screw it and just go back in mid Oct, instead of using her extra 2 wks. I will still have to be light duty for the first few wks, but I was really looking forward to the extra time at home with my boys. I don't know.
Up again, not because baby it's just me this time. Idk why I can't sleep, it's so weird as soon as he's up I'm exhausted when he falls asleep I have a burst of energy. Why is my body not on track yet?? On the plus side I'm happy he's sleeping longer through the night.
