So sleep is not going very well in this house. I know Max is a good sleeper and so the pulling on his ears leads me to one questions..does he have an ear infection brewing?? He was sleeping for 10 hours a night and then 3 weeks ago he started to wake up every 2 hours again unless I put him in bed with me. He just cannot get comfortable. He is swinging his head back and forth and so it leads to me think that is must be the ears. But he is also teething and so it leads me to just guess. He is also congested. I have been giving him herbs to clear up the congestion and they seem to be working but it just stinks.
Scott fears that Max is old enough to know the difference between sleeping in his crib and with me and of course, he wants to sleep with me but I also know he loves to sleep in his crib. I tried to explain to Scott that he is sick and he is a good sleeper and he will make it back into his bed but for now, he just does not feel well. It is not that Scott disagrees with my methods but he just fears that Max will get back in the habit of being with me in bed. I agree but I also cannot let me little guy suffer. I hate this stuff. i hate not knowing what to do. I KNOW THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG but man, it is tough.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. I know I post about this all of the time and I do trust my instinct but I would love to know if moms put the baby in bed or if they rock and then put in the crib or…well you know.
Yes being a mommy is tough and being a baby must be tougher.
On a happy note-happy 2008!!!
