Just after I got done bragging to Prudy last night that Mitch and I feel normal again since Trayton went to bed at 8pm with no fuss and we were on the back deck sharing a bottle of wine he woke up screaming... ugh! It took us until about 10:30pm to get him back to bed and we even fed him again in hopes he would sleep all night long then. NOPE! He was up 4 hours later around 2:30am like he is every night. I got stung by a bee on my behind 2 days ago so I took 2 benadryl before I went to bed since it itches like crazy and is soo swollen it looks like I have a 3rd butt cheek, so I was so out of it Mitch had to get up with him. Same routine that he does every night... bottle, burp, falls right back to sleep but the minute you put him in the crib he screams. The minute you pick him up he falls right back to sleep- SPOILED! This goes on usually for about an hour until he just gives in.... needless to say we will definently be those parents that the second we get the okay that he can sleep through the night we will let him cry because he is a little monster at night. He woke up at 6:45am and I got up with him but Mitch saw how I could barely keep my eyes open and he is such a morning person he shot out of bed anyway so I went back down and finally at 8:30am I woke up with the drugs out of my system and could function again. My sting still itches so we might have to take a walk today to Walgreens to get some cream. Any advice on how to get your child to sleep let me know....

  1. Benadryl works for kids too-LOL
    I think he is old enough that if he eats right before bed, just try to let him cry it out a few nights and see if that helps. He's probably just so used to that routine by now...and trust me, I JUST got Brynnley to sleep in her own bed since we moved thanks to Jeremy. You don't want to fight that for the next 3 years :)
