    So apparently sleep is VERY over rated!!!

    So... in the last 2 days, Miss S has had barely any sleep. She's lucky if she sleep longer than 20mins at a time and is awake for at least and hour and a half in between each cat nap. She is so overtired, it's crazy! I've tried laying down with her, wrapping her, unwrapping her, feeding her to sleep, letting her cry for a little bit, put her in the sling, put her in the bouncer, gone for a walk, gone for a drive and STILL I can only get 15 - 20mins out of her. She is SOOO restless she keeps me awake when shes sleeping in our bed.
    I'm exhuasted, mu (.)(.) are KILLING me!!! They are soooooooooooo sore!!!!!! DH has just come out and said shes hungry again!!! :0 I've told him to get a bottle of EBM and feed her cause my (.)(.)'s need a break!
    She's 8 wks so i'm sure it's a growth spurt but OMG I'm going NUTS!

    Ah, yeah, hope she settles down for you soon. Maybe just let her stay awake if that's what she wants
    Nice warm bath? How's daddy's singing voice?

    LOL yep - done the bath too, and massage.
    Daddys feeding her now so lets see how it goes. Next step will be some panadol I feel....
    Mummy needs a massage cause her back/neck/shoulders are aching from holding/carrying her for 2 days!
