I gotta be honest. Last night when Drew was waking up every 20 minutes and thinking he was hungry I almost lost it. At 4 am if David hadn't come out and taken him from me I would have gone crazy!! Thank you David for giving up your sleep to help your crazed wife. I would never harm my baby, but that doesn't mean that at 4 am after no sleep what so ever I haven't thought about giving this baby back to the hospital!!! I love my little Drew, however I also love sleep, so we are at in impasse. Well he's crying agian. I need to go cuddle and love him and remember why I love being a Mother.

Hey babe, the fabulous news is that the sleepless stage is really so short-- comparitivly. Best of luck surviving, and kudos to David.

Short lasting for some people. Remember Malachi! But you are better at teaching yours to sleep. Thank gooness Libby is doing better than he did. I know exactly what you mean again. Back around the stage you are at I got really upset one night and had no intention of hurting her but Caleb was scared enough he finally got out of bed and helped out a little. Sometimes all I need is someone to talk to me while I'm up for the millionth time in one night. Last week was pretty bad and I had a night where I flung her door open and marched up to the crib, "What is wrong with you!" and marched back out until I could calm down. Then I went back apologized an cuddled my sweet little angel. Caleb has said a few times since we've had kids that he just admires anyone whose kids are still alive.
If I could I would hop in my car and drive the 9 hours to come help, and let you take a much needed nap! I can't do that but I do understand your pain and feel the same way with my kiddos all the time. I am here anytime you need to talk.
I feel your pain! Give me a call any time you need to--I'll message you my number.
