judecorpUgh.
Punk would NOT sleep last night.
No, scratch that, she slept FANTASTICALLY in the early part of the night, drifting seamlessly into sleep at 6:30pm and sleeping like a rock with no necessary resettlings, and then woke up at 11:15 to eat. I fed her, she had a bit of a rough time getting settled back down but was back in bed a few minutes before midnight and I thought all was well. Lately she's needed some resettling around 3 or 4am, so I figured Jen could cover that and I went to bed.
Punk woke up randomly at 12:30am and was Up. Like "ready to play" up. She was talking, moving everywhere (in her swaddle), etc. I had her in the rocker forEVER until she fell asleep, put her in the crib - she woke up. Picked her back up, back in the rocker for longer, put her back in - she woke up. Ad nauseum.
After an hour, I told Jen she had to try because I hadn't gotten to sleep yet and it was 1:30am. So she went but Punk has sort of decided I am her Best Sleep Friend right now and she just kept whining and straining and crying, so I went back out there. She fell asleep in my arms in the rocker. It was a repeat of the previous hour: put her in the crib - wake up. I tried to leave and she just started flailing all over the place, so I picked her up again. I tried to bring her into bed with me, but she just turned that into Party Time.
By now it is somewhere near 2:30 and I am ready to shoot myself. I recruit Jen to try again and I shut off the monitor and have her shut the door. I put the pillow and blanket over my head. But I can still hear the screaming. The screaming. The screaming. I go back and get her again, she sleeps in my arms some more, and finally I tell Jen to get her 2oz of milk. (No, she wasn't hungry, but umm, whatever.)
She fell asleep at 3:30 and Jen came back to bed and promptly fell asleep. I think I fell asleep around 4.
Punk woke up at 5, whining. I went in, rocked, got her back into the crib around 5:40. She woke up at 6:15 when Jen's alarm went off.
She has been a miserable, overtired mess ever since.
ME TOO.

Date: 2008-01-09 04:33 pm (UTC)Yesterday wasn't a great nap day up in here but it wasn't terrible. Her afternoon nap was briefer than usual because we were walking around in the nice weather (she will. not. nap. in. slings.) but I don't know how that became Psycho Baby Qu'est-ce que C'est! Argh!
I hope that somehow the Universe takes pity on us and we both end up with sleeping children tonight. Heck, I'd much rather she have her frequent wake-ups BEFORE 12 and then sleep like a champ after. You'd think I could just REASON with her! ;)
p.s. I am busting into town on Friday, pretty much to have lunch with work peeps and get them off my back about how I don't take the baby to them, but I would love to see you after for a little bit if you think you might be around. It would probably be a drive-by but I miss you!!!
