I think I've had that blog title before, but I don't remember the time change being this difficult before. Whoever thought it up definitely didn't have young children to contend with.
Since Sunday morning, Rebecca has started crying at 4:00 AM every morning (this morning was 4:30--maybe she's finally starting to shift--a little???). Every morning I've gone in, told her it's still nigh night time, rubbed her back a minute, and put her back down. Thankfully she's at least been quiet after that, and goes back to sleep until 5:30. Then we listen to her fuss or talk until 6:00, which is the earliest I'll get her up.
So I'm tired. Waking up at 4:00 every morning is rough. I'm able to go back to sleep, usually, from 4-5:30, but it's broken sleep.
Rachel's been waking up at 5:00 or 5:30. She, at least, goes back to bed on her own, but I still hear her get up and use the bathroom, which is right outside our door. Ugh.
My ear is still really bothering me. I thought it was getting better, but the last two days it's been filled up again. Both girls are stuffed up again, too. Will this never end?
I'm ready for sleep....and good health.
The time change has resulted in my children waking up early...every day. And just one wakes up but that one makes so much noise that the other 2 are up before too long. Ugh!! Hope you feel better soon & that everyone makes the time adjustment.
ReplyDeleteYes...the time change woes. We've been starting our day about 4:30 am this week. That's no fun at all. And then he's super whiney at 5:30 pm, because we haven't eaten dinner yet and he thinks we forgot to feed him. When do they finally adjust?!
