Elsie is sick. She cried every 1-5 minutes last night until around 1am. She was in bed with us and would settle and I’d think ‘ahh—maybe I can sleep’ and then she’d start crying again. I put her in her crib around 1 and she cried for about 5 minutes then finally fell asleep. She woke up about two hours later and it all began again, culminating at 5am with vomit all over the bed.
I say this not to complain, but to remind myself. Babies are lovely, but 2 will probably do me. It would be nice to enjoy a guaranteed night’s sleep in a few years. Unless we get rich and can afford a night nanny. Then I’m having dozens more.
