Oh boy do I miss sleep. I miss a full night of beautiful, uninterrupted sleep. It’s been a looooooooong time.
I didn’t sleep particularly well throughout my pregnancy either. It was a mix of normal pregnancy insomnia, the people in the party pad next door partying particularly hard over Summer, a noisy (and persistent) storm bird living in the tree outside our bedroom and having a watermelon for a belly making it hard to sleep properly.
Now the reason I don’t sleep well is because I have a little cherub who likes to be fed and cuddled throughout the night. Numerous times.
So it would be about a year since I’ve had a blissful nights sleep. I miss that. I miss going to bed and only waking up the next morning. I’m up 2-3 times a night on a good night.
This morning Miss L woke at 4am and wanted to play. She was chatting and smiling. I wasn’t so chipper.
I’ll just keep saying my little sleep-deprived mantra that I’ve been chanting for the past few months.
This too shall pass.
Miss L is far too cute to get mad anyway. x
I know exactly how you feel except my sleep deprivation has been a little bit longer with the occasional full nights sleep thrown in.
Do you just adjust? I’m okay with it for the better part. I accept that this is how it is, and it’s now my new normal.
I just miss it. 😛
I woke before her this morning and I can’t actually remember what times she woke now. It might have just been once?
