Could we all share some words of encouragement for sleep-deprived mamas?

My contribution:
You only need to hang on until the next time you can sleep.

And:
They WILL eventually fall asleep!

This is only for a season - it will pass :hugheart

It's a short time of your life together in the grand scheme of things :yes

You are NOT the only one going through it - there are others not sleeping either :hug2

Everybody is NOT using CIO, and babies who CIO do NOT always sleep better! :no2

Great thread! :yes

Here is my pearl of wisdom. :wink

One day you will look back and long for the days your tiny babe would only sleep in your arms or curled up beside you. :happytears :heart

If you have more than one kid, it's the only time that you can share precious moments between you and your baby.

:tu Good words of encouragement thus far.

Just because your first baby doesn't sleep doesn't mean your next kids won't sleep either. My kids' sleeping habits have all been quite different from each others.
