The last two days have been very exhausting. Sofia has been demanding more and more attention and cuddles whilst sleeping less. She also wakes up during the night crying… my poor little girl.
In addition her gums must be pretty bad because she kept pulling off the boob, so pretty much every time I fed her (4-5 times a day) I had to express and give it to her in a bottle.
Today Sofia seemed a bit tired throughout the day although she today actually had her three naps. Her first nap was 1.5 hours, the next 1 hour and the third 40min or so. We were supposed to go to mothers group at 9am, but she had just fallen asleep and I did not want to wake her with the lack of sleep we’ve both been having… so we ended up not going.
When Sofia slept I was soooooo happy, but all I could do was go and sit down like a zombie until she woke up again. Sofia had a hard time going to sleep at bedtime so I ended up going back in a few times before Mike finally went in and rocked her. She was still awake when he put her down, but she managed to find her sleep then. Maybe it was best with someone without breast milk to rock her…
I was feeling pretty run down at the end of the day, even if she had been sleeping today. Doesn’t help that I have managed to lose my engagement ring! :(. So feeling pretty emotionally drained as well. I don’t even know what day it happened as I have been so sleep deprived that I’m in my own little world, but it must have happened almost 2 weeks ago. I didn’t freak out about it however as I knew it had to be at home – I only take it off when Sofia is getting her bedtime massage. Now I am freaking out however because I can’t find it any of the logical places! Where the #$##$ can it be??? I feel horrible :(. Not having the best couple of weeks…
