Since Little Pumpkin was a month old hubby and I have been so lucky to have a baby that sleeps through the night almost every night. My parents have always told the stories of how I was the perfect baby, “she cried the night she came home from the hospital and from then on slept through the night” you would hear my parents tell people whenever the subjects of babies came up. While I am sure I didn’t sleep through the night right out of the hospital, but I too have been blessed with a good sleeper.
Little Pumpkins day looks like this:
9am: wakeup and play with daddy
9:30: get changed and eat a bottle
Noon: Some solids and 4-6 ounce bottle
12:30pm:Â Nap time
1:00pm: wakeup and play
2:30pm: Some solids and 4-6 ounce bottle
3pm: MOMMY IS HOME!
3:30pm: Daddy goes to work
4pm: Nap time
5:30pm: Wakeup and eat Some solids and 4-6 ounce bottle
6:30pm: Bathtime
7pm: change in to bedtime diaper and PJ’s and Eat 6-8 ounce bottle
7:30pm: Sleeping
This has always been the way of Little Pumpkin, never complains, but for the last week she has been eating every hour it seems, waking up every two to three hours at night for feedings and chewing on everything she can get her hands on . She even tried to eat the cat! Mommy put a stop to that fast. So with every growing baby I am joining the many parents out there who have survived teething and growth spurts a there is only more to come. Not to mention the teen years, I remember how I was as a teen with my mom and I am not looking forward to being on the other side of that experience (karma). So here’s to all you survivors out there in cyberland whether you are not getting sleep because your baby needs to be feed or your teen is out past curfew; I feel your pain.
