I've been a mother for six short months. I wouldn't take a single second back, but damn have I learned a lot. I had an excellent newborn. He slept a lot during the day and was only up two, maybe three times a night. He was an angel. He began sleeping thru the night at three months! Yes you read correctly, three months! He's absolutely perfect. HA! Til he becomes six months old and decides he's going to catch up on his newborn sleeping!!! Not only is my kid up three-five times a night, he ONLY does it on my nights. He thought he'd be cute and say "ma" first and reach for me first and just love me lots. Then he's like ha! I'm going to be nice to dad since I didn't say da first, I'm going to be a dick and only sleep thru the night on dad's night. -insert big baby grin here-
During the wonderful nights he slept completely and all his newborn nights when my husband and I would take turns waking up with his cuteness (after the breastfeeding of course). I was like, yeah I have no idea what these crazy haired, sleep deprived, delirious mom's are talking about. Being a mom is easy. HA! I'm getting my payback! This sweet angel of mine has decided to become the devil. He's going to be clingy and whiny and sleepless, ONLY when it's mom's turn. The hubs thinks I'm crazy, but I swear Chandler has it out for me. And it's because my body didn't make enough of the sweet milk his newborn self got accustomed to.
Oh well. Maybe he'll give me a break. Otherwise some Nana's I know will be receiving a gift. The gift of a grandson. =]
Hey these don't look anything like my piggies! And I'm just going to stick this hand in my mouth in five minutes after they've licked all over them. =]
