Sleep a gift
Last night we had a heck of a time getting the babe to sleep. Lots of crying, rocking, nursing, promises of happy things, and finally at a late hour, she dozed off. I got up to use the bathroom in the wee hours and hear her start to wake but then she quieted. I laid down to listen for the inevitible 3AM feed. I blinked my eyes and then I woke with a start. The clock said 7 AM. WOW! She slept all the way thru the night, the first time ever. A small gift of sleep...I don't expect it again although I would be thrilled if this was a new pattern.
