Last night I was so tired I was having trouble keeping my eyes open as I trawled the aisles of the grocery store. I had to go to pick up a couple of prescriptions - I'm still bleeding a bit at 7 weeks post partum, and when I went for my check up yesterday it was quite painful when the doc checked my ute, so she thinks I have a minor infection. Off topic, sorry.
When I got home, I told Mark that I was going to go to bed ASAP. So I pumped at 9:45 (which was already over 3 hours since Timmy last ate), and was in bed by 10:10. I didn't get woken up by the little mister wanting to feed until.... FIVE TWENTY EIGHT!!! 7.5 hours of solid, unbroken sleep. Pure heaven if you ask me. This is in contrast to the 5-6 hours of sleep in 2-3 blocks that I have been getting for the last 7 weeks. Mark had fed him a bottle at 12:15am, but still, that's a 6 hour stretch and a 5 hour stretch between feedings, which is fantastic!
I'm *not* expecting this to happen again any time soon, but boy does it make me feel more like a human being!

I remember so clearly those early days of sleep deprivation. Glad you got some good Zzzzzs, and hope it starts a trend!
