So, last night was rough. Micah didn't seem to want to feed on both sides before falling into a deep sleep and therefore only sleeping in little spells just long enough for me to get comfortable and drift off to sleep. Then all of a sudden, I'd hear little coos of a boy who wanted a diaper change and then to be fed again only to feed on one side, and the whole vicious cycle would repeat itself. I think with all of the combined sleeping spells, I got a total of 4 hours. I'm praying tonight will be better.
Tonight I'm taking a different approach. I cleaned and sterilized bottles and the all-important pacifiers. Although we aren't introducing the bottle just yet, I'm highly tempted to give the pacifier a go.
Micah fed really well all day long on both sides followed by a 2 hour nap each time. If that can continue through the night, I may hold off on the pacifier as instructed by the pediatrician.
Here's a few videos from today: Tummy Time with Tommy and Hiccups (Turn your head sideways for better viewing. I'll work on learning how to turn things around when I finally get some sleep)
