LO has decided that tonight, sleep is for the weak.
I gave up trying to get him down and put him in the wrap so I could prep for tomorrow. Im wearing him as I type and he's exhausted but awake.
I feel like I am playing a game of last man standing and this baby is totally going to win.

A moms gotta do what a moms gotta do! Hope he falls asleep in the wrap enough for you to transfer him atleast!

Oh no! That's hard. We usually make LO jump in the jumperoo for awhile when she gets in one of those moods. The jumping + excitement of being up past her bedtime usually wears her out pretty quickly.

aww... he may have won the battle, but he will fall asleep eventually... and even if it's ridiculously later than when he should have slept, at that point you will have won the war. Hang in there mama!!!

You guys are awesome. Thank you for all the kind words. I just nursed him to sleep and he's all cute and snugged beside me. The house is a disaster but I'm going to call it a night. Mama is spent!

The house can wait. Baby and mama both need their rest. I hope your LO sleeps well the rest of the night!

i had those nights when olive was around 6 weeks old. she refused to sleep for 6 hour stretches at night. but she eventually grew out of it and it's now a distant memory. the parenting mantra is always that this too shall pass. hope tomorrow is a better night!

I hear ya! I'm trying to prep my classes for tomorrow, and homeboy is wide awake. The Ohio State game just finished, so I tagged my husband in from his post-work decompress so I can get some work done.
Boobies win almost every time! All hail the boobs
