That's when Tiny Boy first woke to nurse last night. That is, a full SEVEN HOURS after I put him down.
I kept looking at the clock to make sure that was right. And the breasts concurred.
I nursed him and put him back and then listened to him jibber-jabber in the crib for half an hour about that most amazing subject dadada. Not sure if he was talking in his sleep, as he certainly wasn't protesting his incarceration. Then, not a peep out of him until almost 4:00. And then 5:30. And then we snuggled and nursed around 6:30 and he might have gone back to sleep if I hadn't turned on the light.
Yes, folks, I am incredibly grateful to have an 11-month-old who ONLY woke three times last night. And the night before. And I know in writing this I risk it not happening again.
But even with the eye gunk and the cough, he's sleeping. Is the Prevacid really working that much better than Zantac (it IS the kind of drug that takes a couple weeks to have full effect)? Is it the new white noise box (I'd tried white noise on the laptop and that never worked)? Is 17 lbs some magical sleep-in-longer-stretches baby weight?
Whatever it is, I'll take it.
