To my dear dear husband. I know, really, that getting angry in the middle of the night is not going to make Sophie sleep. But honestly, that was the 25th time she woke up (not kidding) and I hadn't slept. I went to bed at 8pm because she normally sleeps 8-11 and then starts her waking after that so I was hoping for some sleep. But then you decided to come to bed to and she woke from your snoring and turning over and drinking water and going to the toilet. So in the end I had maybe 2 hours sleep last night in 10 minute blocks.
This is the 4th night she's not sleeping, even cosleeping isn't helping, nothing is. I'm beyond tired and when she's finally sleeping, I'm unable to fall asleep because I'm so overtired. And then FINALLY I start to get really dozy and know I'll sleep in a minute and then you have to start snoring again! And then you have the nerve to get upset with me when I poke you and ask you to stop snoring.
There's only so many nights without sleep I can handle. And stop telling me to sleep when she sleeps during the day. She wakes up after 30 minutes, 45 if I'm lucky so by the time I've finally drifted off she's awake within 3 minutes. And for our long nap in the afternoon she also now wakes about 10 times, so it's not like I'm actually really resting.
The longest sleep I've had in 4 days is a stretch of 1.5 hours.. Once.. So give me a break and keep your comments to yourself that I'm doing it all wrong. You try getting her to sleep so she stays asleep.
Sophie - I love you to bits, but where is mummy supposed to get the energy from to play with you if you never let me sleep!
Sorry for the rant!
