Operation SLEEP

The task has finally been accomplished my friends! Over the last month Isaiah has slowly stopped drinking his 6 oz's at night. He would wake up drink two ounces (obviously not up for hunger purposes) and slowly fuss himself back to sleep. He's not sick, he's not teething, and now knowing full and well he is not hungry we are comfortably able to close our bedroom door and allow the deep sleep of REM its rightful return. It's been two nights so far. The first night it was a solid half hour of crying (midnight-1230) and then two short bouts of fussing at 5:15 am and 6:00am. Last night I only heard him at 4 am fuzzing for a good 10 minutes and then out until seven. We are trying to stick to an eight o' clock bed time as well.

Now to retrain my body not to wake up every few hours. I already feel so much more rested not having to get up out of bed two-three times per night. Taking into consideration that at around six months of pregnancy I would at least have to get up once during the night to use the restroom and now coming up on eleven months of Isaiah finally being able to sleep through the night WE ARE TALKING WELL OVER A YEAR OF NOT GETTING A GOOD NIGHT'S SLEEP. This is why people age. . .children. BUT HALLELUJAH MAMA and PAPA are FINALLY sleeping at night!!!
