The last time I got good sleep was when I had my gall bladder out and M was staying with my mom while I was in the hospital on morphine.</p> <p>I miss that morphine lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948816 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 10:20:17 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 1948816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: Oh big hugs! I'm so sorry, but I can feel your pain. I could tell you it will get better, but that doesn't help anything right now, when you're so desperate for even 5-6 hours of *consecutive* sleep. I hope it passes soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948717 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 09:48:22 +0000 nana87 1948717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: Awww babies! Crawling is such hard work. You'd think that would make them more tired.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948701 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 09:42:05 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948701@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@nana87: T is trying to crawl too. Their poor little brains. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948688 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 09:35:30 +0000 nana87 1948688@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel the same!! I take all the wake ups since we nurse to sleep and sometimes it's fine but nights like last night are brutal! She woke up at 9 until 11:30 thinking it was party time, woke at 12 for a paci reinsertion, 3 w a poopy diaper and nurses, then up for the day at 5:45. She napped SO well at daycare yesterday so she should have slept! She's learning to crawl, I think that's the culprit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948642 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 09:11:22 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948642@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: T hasn't been to see DH's side of the family in a while. Maybe they both need to take a day out to go visit this weekend. Without mom. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948635 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 09:08:21 +0000 rachiecakes 1948635@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: I remember that! :( J would refuse bottles when I was at work and wanted to nurse alllll night long, it was insane. It did come to an end eventually. He's almost 3 and though he does regularly want to crawl into bed with me, I can finally sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948629 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 09:05:18 +0000 Little Misters Mom 1948629@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I involuntarily nodded in agreement reading this Amy Poehler quote about having kids: "Sleep at this point is just a concept, something I’m looking forward to investigating in the future." </p> <p>Someday, ladies, someday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948606 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 08:46:51 +0000 looch 1948606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had to call in reinforcements this weekend, I took a much needed two hour nap on Sunday...could this be a possibility? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948597 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 08:32:47 +0000 Anagram 1948597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yeah, I used to dream about sleeping for 14 hours straight....but I've now taken two trips without LO and found that she killed my ability to sleep well or long. On both trips, I was up at the crack of dawn and couldn't go back to sleep. Oh JOY. Guess I'm officially a mom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948539 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 07:07:08 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@blackbird: We usually tag team every night. Usually I end up having to nurse T anyway if it's a bad night, so i usually can't duck out completely. :( Right now he's working and I'm not so I try and take over. Although he got up and traded me places last night which was really great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948533 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 06:51:03 +0000 blackbird 1948533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can't your DH take over for a few nights? Pop some earplugs in, take a Unisom, pass out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948531 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 06:49:28 +0000 ElbieKay 1948531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My company has an annual offsite. It's usually a 3-day weekend. I usually hate going because I have to spend the weekend attending meetings and then tolerating drunk people. I skipped this year's because I was on maternity leave. I cannot wait for next year's! A whole bed to myself! OMG! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948528 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 06:44:36 +0000 knittylady 1948528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For Christmas I'm asking MIL to have the kids so DH and I can have a night out including the next morning. I can't wait. No really. I.cant.wait. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948502 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 00:50:24 +0000 littleblessings 1948502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: H is teething too and his waking up keeps waking up his sister. I know how you feel mama. Teething won't last forever... At least I hope not! Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948496 Tue, 18 Nov 2014 00:10:50 +0000 daniellemybelle 1948496@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm so sorry. I know how it is! </p> <p>At 9 months DH &amp; I went on a vacation and LO stayed with my mom. She was not a great sleeper at that time (or ever really) and it was so amazing. You need to get away! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948484 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 23:38:38 +0000 erinpye 1948484@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Danizaur: Boo! I'm sorry, mama. I hope he falls asleep ASAP- and you do, too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948482 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 23:36:56 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He woke up at 9pm (literally right after I drifted off) and would not go back to sleep. I got him up and nursed him and gave him some Tylenol. Now he thinks it's a party. It's almost midnight now. :/ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948462 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 23:04:37 +0000 StbHisMrs 1948462@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know!! This is a text I send to my Husband often "I just want them to SLEEP!!!" Seriously it's been like 4 years if we're counting good old pregnancy sleep. My middle daughter was up 3, yes 3 times for milk. Wth?? She's 3, she should not be doing that!! We have a king and it's laughable how much room I get once the youngest wakes up and I fall asleep rocking her. The hardest part for me is staying up so late, C goes to bed at 8:30, wakes up at 10, 10:45, then 11:45, she's good til 2:45. </p> <p>On the flip side my 12.5 year old could sleep all day and night if I let him!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948433 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 22:35:16 +0000 avivoca 1948433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll admit, I was jealous of my husband this weekend when he got to go stay in a hotel for a work conference. He got a king bed alllllll to himself and slept like a rock. Meanwhile, I had a cold that turned into a double ear infection and our child is cutting three teeth at once. </p> <p>However, it does get better. I'm on the other side (for now). Sleep got a lot better after the nine-month regression and shortly after her first birthday, she STTN. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948422 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 22:22:23 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948422@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@erinpye: Me too. One day he will be a teenager and I won't be able to bribe him out of bed. Lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948417 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 22:19:03 +0000 erinpye 1948417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh I feel you. I haven't slept decently in about 3 years. I hold on to hope that at least when my kids are like 10, I'll sleep better. :bummed: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948406 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 22:08:11 +0000 Mae 1948406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>seriously. if i went to a hotel for the night, i would just sleep the whole time. lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948397 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:56:38 +0000 Foodnerd81 1948397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was just talking to dh about this. We went to a wedding and left c at my parents house last month. We stayed in an average hotel but it was like the lap of luxury sleeping until we felt like waking up! (Which was 9:20 because my boobs were telling me to feed the baby). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948391 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:50:35 +0000 Applesandbananas 1948391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hugs. </p> <p>Maybe you can plan a special Valentine's night away for you and DH? Something to look forward to, to get you through this tough patch! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948390 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:50:03 +0000 Pumpkin Pie 1948390@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hey momma. I'm sorry. It's tough. I'm about to have a break down due to no sleep. We can do this!! We have to. I'm thinking of you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-need-to-sleep-for-about-48-hours-straight#post-1948387 Mon, 17 Nov 2014 21:47:55 +0000 artsyfartsy 1948387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just realized that I haven't went to bed, slept all night comfortably, and woken up on my own time in over a year (counting pregnancy sleep). Even when T sleeps through the night he's always up super early. </p> <p>T is teething/sick and is up every hour. I remember when he was like 4 weeks old I had a mental breakdown when I realized I was not going to sleep well for a LONG time. I kind of gotten used to it over the months but geez. DH went on a trip for almost a week and I was just like "What was it like just to SLEEP?"</p> <p>I really need one of those too. :crying:<br /> What's the point of this post? I don't know. I'm tired. </p>
