This guy slept through the night last night!We've been working to switch his schedule to being up during the day, and it was been heading that way but slowly. Then last night we put him down at 9, he was up from 2:30-3 to nurse, and then didn't get up again until 5:30! I call that a major success! Obviously growth spurts and things will likely send this on its head before too long but for now I will take it with open arms! Hopefully tonight I will be able to enjoy it instead of hovering over him wondering if something is wrong! :)
On a more personal note, last night I had a mini break down because I realized how much I have missed my husband over the last three weeks since Oliver was born. That seems odd since Austin took a week off of work AND was allowed to work from home for two weeks. This week is actually the first week he's gone back to the office. However, we have had a lot of company helping us with the baby, and our focus has been entirely on him. I am so grateful for this little boy, but I really love time to focus on my husband. I realize now I'm grateful to have that kind of problem, since I know a lot of relationships struggle after a baby is born. As for me, I have never been more in love with my other half. He's been so supportive and sweet through everything, and each moment with him is a gift.
This is me not caring about being sappy. End scene.
My shark baby came out of the womb sleeping through the night and through all the growth spurts and whatever she sleeps through the night like Oliver. Keep working it Mama. Once we got The Monster on an awesome sleep schedule like that we have never looked back. Keep working it because it makes a world of difference and it ensures however the day went. Once the kids are in bed the husband and I get time to pay attention to each other.
