Well... practically. :( She's got two teeth already and...
We laid her down in her own bed last might- for some mommy-daddy time- thinking we'd bring her in to bed when she woke up to eat next... she didn't wake up until 9:30 am!! :jawdrop I woke up @ 5:00am and checked on her. I wanted to see how long she'd sleep, the whole time wishing she'd wake up...
So what do you do when they sleep better by themselves?? :cry I *love* to sleep with her, but........ she tosses and turns and nurses all night long, and it kind of affects our "intimacy" opportunities. I almost cried last night at just the thought of the possibility that she might sleep better alone...then it turned out to be true! (at least this first time anyway.) :( Maybe it'll turn out to be a fluke. There was once about a month ago that I was laying her down for a nap. I had just set her down on the bed for a minute to go get something and was coming right back. When I came back, she was sound asleep! I thought she was moving off to college the next day then, too. But that turned out to be a fluke, thankfully.
I couldn't believe what it was like to hold her again. I'd gone ten and half hours without holding her! The longest ever! Is something wrong with me to be so upset about this? Shouldn't I be glad or something? :(
