On the good side, at least the phase of I don’t want to sleep I want to crawl\/pull up and I’m going to scream at you for half an hour<\/i> has passed. She goes to bed so easily again. Not every time, but when she’s tired all I have to do is nurse her, give her her paci, and then wait for her to fall asleep. I’m even scooting back a little bit so she’s not cuddled right into me, and putting her on her belly. And she just… falls asleep. (Of course then I have to wait FOREVER for her to fall asleep deep enough that I can open the door without waking her up. It’s like she gets 95% of the way there and then just hangs.) This makes bed time FAR more pleasant for all involved.<\/p>\n
On the bad side, she wakes up every freaking hour. Sometimes half an hour. Even after I bring her to bed with me, where I am sleeping touching her, she’s still waking up every 2 hours. Every 2 hours! All night long! Aaaggghhhhhhh. And she’s crying and whimpering and fidgeting so there’s definitely something bothering her. At least I kind of hope so, because then it will go back to “normal” when it’s over with.<\/p>\n
Given how she was chomping viciously on her paci all day I’m putting money on teeth. She uses her paci on and off during the day. It was only during naptime but she seems to need it more right now. Today every 5 minutes she was pushing it to the side<\/i> of her mouth and really gnawing on the thing. If the paci wasn’t on hand then she stuck her fingers in her mouth. Or my knee, or the couch arm, or the table. My child still has no teeth so I am just waiting.<\/p>\n
Just this evening my throat started hurting so apparently I am getting sick. I hope that’s not what is bugging her. Ugh.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
