Heartache later, for now just a post about how I have to basically start from the beginning with L and his sleeping habits. So I have had the hardest month of my life. This month has tested my families ability to cope, and be as strong as ever. It is unfortunate that our strength has to be determined by how well we get up when we get knocked down. Those are the rules of life, and I hate them. Last, last week when I dislocated my shoulder, basically doing nothing. I allowed L to go back onto our bed. He was sleeping 4-5 continuous hours but I was loopy and didn't wanna get up. The husband works early and I've never made him get up when the baby would wake up, and I was at home for five months I always got up..ALWAYS! It sometimes sucked, but I was committed to nursing. He does so much for us, I think the man could get some sleep at least. So, anyways I allowed him to sleep with us, Then other stuff happened that I won't got into right now and I didn't wanna wake up too much. I was a little numb, and then its been two weeks of straight co-sleeping again. I seriously still don't hate it. I kinda love it, but it doesn't work for our space. So here I am back at waking up every 2-3hrs. Trying to get him down in his crib. I still go in there, I lay with him in his crib. Tonight He nursed twice and the third time I sang him to sleep. That's something new, I actually sang him to sleep. How awesome is that.? We have a lullaby, and he fell asleep to it. I absolutely love that, I never thought we would get there. I promise once day to not have a whole blog dedicated to my son's sleeping. For now it is all we struggle with.
