Long night

So from midnight til now (730 am) I basically was holding or feeding the baby in the bed. A few times I found myself thinking I was too close to her or rolling on her arm. I wasnt, but sleep deprived moms are just as a hazard as moms under some influence of drugs or alcohol. So, if I were more tired or this were to continue for several nights, it could be disasterous. So, I am buying the cosleeper now. PW was up for about an hour with us, so she is feeling the effects too. Baby seemed to have gas which is why she couldn't sleep well. She seems to be super tired now and is back in her crib. She's got the hiccups now though. I knew I should have prebought gas drops, but I was trying to save money. Today I'm going to check the status of PW'S support and add Baby. I'm going to try to sleep for 1 hour before PW wakes up. ....... 1 minute later and Baby is crying. Probably wants top be back in the bed.

First night

First night as a truly single mom of two babies under two years old. Tooh had had enough of being even part time. Feeling a bit jumpy in terms of security, though alarms are on. This is our sleeping set up. Baby wants to be closer but this is safest for her. I'm going to buy cos Leeper maybe. Pw's cup is soaking, diapers next to bed, alarms set for feeding Baby every 90 minutes. Baby is whimpering a bit. May cave in and let her sleep on bed.
