That's how I survive the early morning feedings. Not the healthiest thing (ever) but for now, it's what's keeping me sane in the membrane.
My aunt, my amazing awesome aunt, sent us a cd of lullabies she said helped my cousin sleep through the night and a portable swing for the baby. It's amazing. He's been sleeping in it for over an hour now...I think this is what's going to help everyone sleep.
Hallelujah.
He just doesn't like his bassinet. At all. He'll fall asleep, (like that yummy deep sleep we all wish we could stay in when our alarm goes off at 6am?) in my arms no less, but as soon as his warm little body touches that cold bassinet...he's awake and screaming his little head off. I'll check him for a wet diaper, burp him...none work...but as soon as I cuddle him close...he's back to sleep. Bah. It's such a nice bassinet too. I'm hoping this swing will get him to sleep on his own. Even though he's only two weeks old...he needs are the same as his wants: food, comfort and a diaper change. Plus...he won't be this little forever...I need to savor every little snuggle because soon he'll be at the age where all Mom does is embarrass him. Ayyy...
But for now...he's little and my snuggle partner.
