No matter how many books you read or how many people tell you ... It's not your fault. When something is so to speak wrong with your baby you tend to blame yourself,Thinking of what your could have I done different. So the PROBLEM is Tristen has been waking up increasing more and more and more.. I wrote it down last night and the night before - Tuesday night- went down at 7:40 .. Up at 8:20-9:00-9:45-10:00-10:45-12:40-1:12-3:13-4:28-5-6-7-8 I was too deliourios to write exact times.. Last night was a little better I put him in his pack n play in our room and it seemed to help. He just seems so uncomfortable and when I try to burp him he just keep throwin himself back to lay down.. So then next thing you know he wakes up and farts a whole bunch.. and sometimes it seems like he wakes up just to make sure I didnt go anywhere.And lastly he is poppin his 2 top teeth sooooo who knows. I think this book I got is helping me a little but I think some good ol sleep would do us both good. Its just there is some things I feel I should have done sooner like having him sleep in his bed or stopping beast feeding earlier.. But then again if I were to do it all over I probably wouldnt change a thing.. I love feeling him next to me when I sleep .. and as cliche as it may sound breast feeding really is a bonding thing.. Its somethign you can do for him that no one else in the world can do.. (unless your single white female crazy) Anyways thats my rant..

I think it's so amazing that you still nurse him. I wish I had nursed Dayna and Wesley longer than I did. I also let the kids sleep with me for a long time, and they are ok. Well Dayna is, Wesley is bananas LOL. I think he just is, not from him sleeping with me for so long. You are a wonderful Mommy Angelina. I think Tristen is very blessed to have you and Rich as parents. Zerby makes comments too when I look at your pictures. He says you 2 are great parents! Ok, I gotta stop before my eyes start leaking. I love you!
I know what you mean when you say we could both usse a good night sleep. ever since sammy rolled off my bed two weeks ago he has been cranky too and waking up all hours of the night you know what i am talking about right when you just fell asleep they are up and ready to be awake. he is trying to pop out his bottem teeth too so maybe your right it might have something to do with that too.
Everything will be okay, Tristen is just smarter than the average baby, i think we ALL know that by now. He know's what he wants and lets us know taht he is in charge. Damn, i can only imagine what its going to be like when he gets older.
why is it that we are sooooo hard on ourselves? and why is it that our babies know exactly what strings to pull at exactly the right, or wrong time? and how is it possible to love so much? becoming a mom teaches you the true meaning of "love hurts."
yet somehow, and with out rhyme or reason most of the time, our little buggas figure 'it' out, whatever 'it' is, and move on to the next heart stopping/tear jerking episode!
your son is amazing, even if he is up all night...you are doing EVERYTHING right.
I LOVE ALL OF YOU!
