Q: WIDE AWAKE
asked by: fairytale007 on January 20th, 2008

Argh. It's almost 7am, and I've been up since 4ish with a screaming Dante! Sad Nothing will comfort him...I've changed, feed, burped, rocked and he just cries and cries. He's been doing this every night for the past 2 weeks, always been 12-5am. Sad

This bites and I'm soo tired. And I start school on Tuesday. I have no clue how I'm going to last. I hope this ends soon.


Anyone else wide awake???

I think that might be his problem. I might bring it up with my doctor on Friday (also his doctor) and see what she says. Good thing Thomas is off today so hee can help out.

It does end, it does get better. Looking back I have no idea how I coped the first half of Rowan's life (well, and longer, because she's only been consistantly sleeping through the night for the last month now). It does get better, so much better! I have no idea where my strength came from, because looking back I have no idea how I didn't go completely insane, but I promise, it really does get better.

I agree Tanya. It gets better and when I looked back, those first few months were so hard. But you just do it.

macy would scream for 10-12 for no reason, colic is not fun. I dont think there is much you can do about it so hang in there, youll get thru it and forget how awful it was.

I don't know. On one hand I want to go back and have my alone time for a few hrs but on the other, I hate leaving Dante for that long of a time frame. Thankfully Thomas will be watching him and it's no more than 4 hrs that I'll actually be away from him 4 times a week.
