Operation: Pierce

September 14, 2012 by Adrienne

Night 2 of Operation: Pierce Sleeps at Night had me shaking my head at why I’d been getting up, feeding a baby, and putting him back into his bed again every 2 or so hours for 346 days. (Just for the record, I did that in my head. Then I got out a calculator, actually added it up, and came up with the exact same number. Sometimes I’m amazed to find a few brain cells are still alive and kicking in the right direction.)

He cried once. For less than 15 minutes.

Night 3 was more of the same. He cried once and got over it fairly fast. I didn’t get up.

Sleep, my friends, is a wonderful thing. I’ll let you know how wonderful just as soon as I retrain MY body not to wake up every two hours.

    Yeah sleep! It is so very frustratingly ironic that once the child finally sleeps through the night, we find ourselves still getting up all night long.

    Isn’t it ironic? I can’t remember the last time I slept for eight hours without waking!
