ughh, a hard night

Yes, the twins went to bed last night just fine (about a half hour earlier than usual because that's when they showed clear signs of being tired for the night which was 6:30pm -- usual bedtime is 7:00pm). Although I heard DD talking in her bed until 7:15pm. . Well, DD decided to wake up at 10pm, 1:30am, 3:00am, 4:00am, 5:30am (she only fed once -- at 4am...the other times because she just had a hard time staying asleep I guess). Poor DS woke up at 4:00am and then again at 5:00am. I'm sure because of DD……anyways -- I've been up since 1:30am. I love being a mom of twins! LOL

A very unusual night indeed…..Thank goodness for Starbucks and double shots!!!!!

 

*hugs* Nights like that are so hard.

I had a few nights like that recently! I thought I was going to die. They were waking each other up, too. It's almost worse than the newborn stage because you start getting your hopes up that they sleep more at night and SLAM...they have nights like those!! Ugh! I know exactly how you feel! They are sleeping better again, but I had to separate them. I kept Taylor in her crib in her room and Abby has been sleeping with me in the SnuggleNest (which I almost gave away to my friend because I thought I was done with it <_< ). One of the doctors at work has twins that share a room and he told me he keeps a huge loud fan between their cribs so they don't wake each other up, but he also has a video monitor to check on them, but he swears by the fan. He says it sounds like a helicopter landing in their room, but they love the noise. I am thinking I have to get one of those but I like to be able to hear them myself!

 

Woohoo Starbucks!

Hope tonight is better.

I know a little something about this. I'm so sleep deprived at this point I can't even remember how many times they have gotten up. But your LOs sound a lot like mine.

 

Nights like that are tough! I hope tonight is better for you!

 

Hang in there mama..

Yes, thank God for Starbucks!! :lol:
