Cassius... the number of coffees and hot chocolates I had two sips of and then forgot about is definitely in the hundreds!! Thanks for reminding me of that. And to buy an automatic rocker/swingamagig type thing for this next bub. Silly me, scoffing at all the contraptions I thought I didn't need...... Oh my goodness I needed them. You watch, I'll buy them all and this bubby will be an awesome sleeper. Damn you Murphy and your stupid laws!

HotI- I'm so glad you got something from our replies. Parenting is hard work. But you're awesome, remember? Can you express a little at all so that DS can have one or two feeds from Daddy during the night? If not, is co-sleeping an option? I didn't even BF for very long but still co-slept because it minimised his squeaking and squawking during the night. It made things easier, but difficult in a different way ITMS. I remember sobbing to DP one night "I just want to have a couple of hours of sleep by myself without a baby on me, snuffling in my face!" Seems amusing now, but I remember how tiring it got. Whatever gets you more sleep though is the best option. If I didn't co-sleep, it would've been no-sleep. Hehe.... Poetic!
