Well it is bed time... Not that sleep time really exists for me at the moment, i would say it was more a period of consequtive naps taken during the hours when most people (local time) do their sleeping.
Littlest, ALfie, is still waking eight months in. Last night it was every three hours from midnight... Until 6am when the biggest, Finn, woke him up, singing a self composed, morning song.
Had a lovely sunday with the family today, and I am really.beginning to see ALfie's character come through. I have experienced it a lot more than everyone else due to breast feeding but now he feeds less and eats real food, and can get about of course, he is really starting to bond with everyone around him.
All of these milestones i am honoured to observe... Yet i cannot help but wonder at times if i am being cheated a bit with this sleeping business... Well lack of!
I had a middle of the night break down where my brain could analyse and conclude no longer! Luckily I am on a few of these 'other mum's, all mum's, stick together' forum sites where i had a rant. Although we are a minoroty, we are not the only ones. And there are many reasons which could explain why he is waking.
I never thought about it much until one of the mummy's mentioned milestones.... Which makes so much sense. He spends all day trying to stand up and the falling over so he probably dreams about that too. He is teething with tooth five and six too so that is not helping...
Suddenly i feel a bit less sorry for myself...
