One of the BIG Questions
Anyone who has a young child knows several questions that everyone asks. One of the big ones - "How is he/she sleeping?" and all variations of people asking if your baby is sleeping THROUGH THE NIGHT. Well, up until now I have been deceiving everyone. I would say "yes, Margo is a good sleeper" and I think I deceived myself into believing this too because honestly she was! She would only wake up one or twice during the night and want to nurse then be put back down. I thought "hey, that's pretty good! at least she doesn't want to stay up all night playing!" Well, I've come to my breaking point. After 10 and a half months without a full night's sleep (the one time I was away from Margo I still had to wake up in the middle of the night to pump) I am putting my foot down. Starting last night I am no longer nursing Margo in the middle of the night - there I've said it in writing and Lord willing, it will happen! Jim and I agreed to switch off getting up with her and putting her back to bed without eating. Last night was great because she didn't wake up until 5:45am. Maybe she knows something is up, I guess we'll see soon enough. Wish us luck!
