Never fails!
Sleep deprivation kills me. I get depressed. I fall down. And then I am back up again. Here I am today feeling happy even though I am tired and fat. Yes, I said fat. Just went to try on clothes this morning at some stores for a party I’m going to Saturday night. Oh my, the rolls…UGH!
Last night, Sean tried to do the middle of the night. Didn’t really work but I did sleep downstairs from about 1:30-4, so that was a good stretch. We are working on helping Eli sleep longer bits. He used to do more, but recently we are in 2-3 hour land again and sometimes he just stays up for awhile. The cumulutive effect just finally kicked my butt yesterday. Cool thing that I relaized it so quickly. In the past I’d just hang out being depressed.
So, now we have to get the little bugger to eat more in the day. He eats more at night than in the day. I keep offering him milk during the day but he only eats if he’s hungry (wish i could learn that part
)
Thanks for all the well wishes.
Glad you’re feeling better today! Glad you got a bigger stretch of sleep! Praying Eli gets back on track to sleeping longer for you!
Hey sweets, what I can say is that I’m so proud of you for knowing your body and for knowing WHY you get depressed. The how to fix it may not always be an easy answer, but at least you are working towards it and Sean is there for a support. (((((DEB))))
Its way cool that you realized why you were feeling the way you were.
Hopefully that cute little guy gets on a better sleep schedule soon.
Hang in there Deb

Awesome way you thought it thru and handled it!

Hey, rolls……. Yeh I was feeling those. Nasty little picture of me, but whatchya gonna do? I realised the stress needed to be reduced which was mostly self imposed. You, I feel for you Debbie and you have such a huge load of your shoulders. Are you able to have some you time? I hope you can have a little time to find some energy. *thinking sleepy thoughts for your and QUIET* Take care.

Ok…Saturday is here…how did it go at the party? I hope Eli starts sleeping more, this is one of the things I think about A LOT when hubby starts on the “we should have a baby bit.” Babies, are so cute, specially when they sleep, huh? LOL! Hang in there babe, as you already know, he will outgrow this!
