My first child woke up every 2 hours for the first 11 months. No matter what we tried! It was insane. Luckily, my 2nd one understood the sleep thing a lot earlier.<BR/><BR/>Hey, GREAT to see your face, and to catch up with what's going on in your life. Your little boy is too stinking cute!<BR/><BR/>-Jessie (you know, your cousin)Jessiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14214729463980227386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264061456328345426.post-47146526886939820252008-11-12T16:35:00.000-07:002008-11-12T16:35:00.000-07:00How about motrin AND tylenol?

But then it opens you up to another long-term situation that you may not want to have.<BR/><BR/>Since I know you don't want your little guy to cry it out every night, I'll suggest the book 'The no cry sleep solution' by Elizabeth Pantley. Addy is STILL not a very good sleeper, however we are down to about one night waking most nights. That book was a comfort to me when she was waking very frequently and I was exhausted...AND I didn't want to take all the advice I was being given about letting her cry it out. <BR/><BR/>Check out your library - they should have a copy.<BR/><BR/>I'm SO sorry...and hang in there!<BR/><BR/>BeckAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3264061456328345426.post-30048020740908436242008-11-12T07:14:00.000-07:002008-11-12T07:14:00.000-07:00Yes, I can definately relate!!

I was going to suggest just letting him sleep in your bed with you, but you've already tried that! :) I have heard of those who have just let their babies cry until they are too exhausted to feel pain? (Is that possible? I don't know). Maybe call the nurse and ask her what she suggests! lol...or maybe you've already done that...so sorry you are not getting your sleep. I'm seriously not a happy person when I don't get my sleep. I wish I could help you out more!Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443710302279140577noreply@blogger.com
