oof/yawn

Karma has come to extract payback, and payback - she is a bitch. Not to brag or anything, but Alex slept through the night at 7 weeks. 7 WEEKS!
Maternity leave for the most part was truly like being on vacation. We slept until 8am, napped a lot, it was truly restful and wonderful and I was all “This is mommy-hood, so blissful and free!”
Then I went back to work and fielded questions about how tired I was, to which I smugly responded, “Nope, he sleeps through the night (beautific smile).” And then Alex started standing and now does not want to sleep or nap - EVER. Last night he went to bed at 7:15 - fell asleep in my arms no less, sweet and dreamy. Then he woke up at:
- 9pm
- 10pm
- 11:15pm
- 12:30am
- 2:10am
- 4ish? - God by this point I have no idea I just know I heard him
- 5:10am - Brett gave him a bottle after 15 solid minutes of sobbing with no sign of returning to sleep
- 7am - standing in the crib all chubby legs and smiles. I forgave him immediately.
Things that could be wrong:
- dirty diaper - nope checked that at wakeup #5
- gas
- teeth
- sick - nope checked for fever at #4
- hungry
- lonely
- sleepy
- cranky
- hot
- cold
- or umm - the bloody lip thing.
God I don’t know. I can barely tupe type.
But it’s ok sweet baby.
