Sleep drama (again)

Co-sleeping was a temporary fix, it seems. She is no longer content to sleep next to me. She must be held tightly by me in the crook of my arm. At least, that was all that would work last night - and she still woke up every hour or so.
At one point she was sleeping in the crook of my arm (which is incredibly uncomfortable and usually ends up hurting my arm, hand, shoulder, etc.) and she must have been laying just so, because she managed to totally block the circulation to my hand. When she woke up fussing, I realized that I had gone past the pins and needles stage, past the dead hunk of meat stage, and I /could not move my fingers or thumb/. It was the freaking scariest thing that has ever happened to me. I was sitting there trying to will my fingers to move.
Eventually I had rubbed my arm enough that the pins and needles feeling came and I was able to move my digits again.
Seriously scary! And getting an hour (or so) of sleep last night was seriously sucky.
