I have one more very important update – its called, ILYA DOESN’T SLEEP AT NIGHT ANYMORE!!! I was literally up all night with her.\u00c2\u00a0 Every time I started to doze off, she would kick or fuss or flail her arms about her as if warding off invisible ninjas. At 8am, I broke down and cried. I could hardly stand up, the world was spinning, and Ilya was happy as could be waiting to start a new day.\u00c2\u00a0 Adam saved the day. He took her downstairs and let me sleep for two hours (of course, given the opportunity for sleep, my body would only let me rest in half hour intervals). Poor Ilya is as exhausted as I am. She is crashed out on the sofa (the fact that she is sleeping somewhere other than on mommy’s chest should tell you something about the depth of her tiredness). I don’t know how many people out there actually bother to read this blog, but here is your chance to talk to me (and my chance to figure out who actually reads this). Tell me all your tricks and little bits of wisdom to get a baby to sleep through the night.<\/p>\n
I know that if I put her in her crib, she will probably sleep longer, but I couldn’t stand to do that – so, when sharing your ideas, keep in mind that Ilya sleeps right next to me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
