Just call me The Zombie. I'm shattered.

Any more thoughts girls? We are a couple of weeks in and I'm up to DD 5 times most nights. I honestly may as well stay up all night as the games start as soon as my head hits the pillow (how does she know that I've just gone to bed?!), continue until 2am usually, then it starts again around 5am.

She's quick to settle each time until the 5am wakeup when she's really restless and she just can't get herself back to sleep easily. She often sleeps for another 30 mins then wakes again then comes into our bed and sleeps soundly for a couple of hours! Clearly she's tired but for the first time ever (well, despite the newborn days) she can't sleep properly past 5am. She has always been a sleeper-iner, til 8am or so. I'm at a loss, I have no idea what's going on.

I lost it this morning - totally lost it. After an hour of gently trying to get her back to sleep, I let her scream behind her door for 10 minutes then I threw the towel in - turned on all the lights, let DD out of her room still screaming but I just walked away from her and started the day. I even told DH to f-off when he tried to comfort me as well I just had to yell at someone, poor DH. Thankfully he's been very understanding that I'm just so overtired and so over it.

So is it time for sleep school?

Hopefully she adjusts quickly. DS is nearly 4 and still wanders out of his room most nights, but I am sure you didn't want to hear that lol!
You're right Arte, I so didn't want to hear that!
