Matilda is five weeks old today. We went to bed last night a little after 10, after Matilda slept on our chests through some CSI and L&O. She began her nap on me, but Niclas kept edging closer and closer to me until he was almost in my lap and because Matilda was already on my chest, I WAS A LITTLE SHORT ON SPACE. So we moved her over to him. But then he got a little overheated so we shuffled her back to me. ANYWAY. We went to bed and it's not like I expected to sleep through the night, but I certainly didn't expect the first feeding to start at 12:15 and still be going strong at 2:15. Nor did I think it would entail two diaper changes (so far), impending crank every time she finds her mouth missing a boob and SOMEONE spitting up milk all over my top.
Maybe this is a growth spurt. It better not be a new sleep pattern.
