Babies for the win!

4:33am. Still rocking&shhhhing.

Our night went like this:

9pm, bottle of BM each. Down till 11:30.

11:30, up and fed, down till almost 2am.

 2am till now both fussy and awake. 

 I make deals with them but they don't care. I tell them they can earn Toys r Us bucks if they just go back to sleep. Yes. I bribe my two month olds.

  • If it makes you feel any better, we were up at 8:50, 12:30, 1:30, 2:15, 3, 4:15, 5:15, and 6:45!! I wish i hhad thought to bribe him....though I think teeth are non negotiable. It's either teething or his cold that's keeping him up.

    I promised my unborn son a cookie if he turned head down. So far, no dice.

    Yuck!  My almost 2 1/2 yr old who is normally a good sleeper woke up yesterday at 5 am and today at 1:30 am and she didn't fall back asleep until 3:30 am which means neither did we.  Unfortunately we get up at 4:30 am on weekdays and couldn't fall back asleep ourselves before that.  To top it off I've been having mild contractions all morning so if I go into labor today I am going to be one exhausted lady :(

  • I'm sorry ladies :( Here's to hoping tonight is a much better night!

    I tell Ben every day that he is going to sleep six hours through the night. Usually, he sleeps three hours, then two the rest of the night. 

    I promised him a car when he turned sixteen while inside of me, if he came out potty trained. H promised him a pony if he came on my birthday. He did neither, but clearly we aren't above bribes.

    We successfully potty trained DD at 27 mo by basically using bribes and praise and it worked like a charm (only took 3 days with her even being dry at night after the first night), so clearly we aren't above it either.  Your bribes are way more costly than our bribes of Mickey Mouse toys and marshmallows though....

    Those bribes were null and void when he came into this world needing diapers and not on my birthday, lol. I potty trained myself at 14 months, so I have high hopes for him. I doubt he'll be that early. I was the youngest of 3u3. I did everything early from watching my sisters do it.
