We made it through another night. He still
woke up a few times, but I re-wrapped and plugged him and he
went back to sleep. It was really hard at 3am though. I woke up
to the sounds of him cooing and talking in his crib. It was
sooo adorable. I stayed in bed for a few minutes just listening
to him. When I got up he was all smiles – waving his arms and
playing with his blanket. (I was also full of milk and ready to
nurse!) It took everything in my power to avoid eye contact and
just cuddle him back up and put him back in the crib. I think
it’s for the best though. As he’s coming up on 5 months now we
really need to start sleeping through the night. As much as I
wanted to go back to bed, I also wanted to get up and nurse and
cuddle him for awhile. :) Not sure if this is tough love for
him or for me.
