It tugs at my heart strings and if she is super grumpy she can go for like an hour. And then I feel horrible because I can't sooth her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-there-was-one-thing-you-didnt-have-to-deal-with-as-a-parent-what-would-it-be#post-100743 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 22:31:38 +0000 Rubies 100743@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't mind waking up in the middle of the night...It's having to still wake up early that is exhausting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-there-was-one-thing-you-didnt-have-to-deal-with-as-a-parent-what-would-it-be#post-100720 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 22:12:27 +0000 owlmom 100720@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@NYCaliMama: I'm not to that stage yet, but I completely agree from watching my nephews.

Normally LO sleeps for 12 hours so we don't have to wake up, but if she does wake up my husband will get her. I need my sleep or I get a migraine. </p> <p>My least favorite thing is washing all those bottles. I love giving her a bottle and will miss that when she's weaned, but I won't miss all that washing. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-there-was-one-thing-you-didnt-have-to-deal-with-as-a-parent-what-would-it-be#post-100175 Fri, 23 Mar 2012 12:28:22 +0000 Mrs. Bee 100175@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pumping? Waking up in the middle of the night? Waking up early? Cooking/Feeding?</p> <p>It would have to be waking up in the middle of the night for me. I'm used to it, but I can't imagine how much more productive I would be if I could sleep through the night!</p> <p>How about you? </p>
