SLEEP DEPRIVED?
So the breast feeding thing is still touch and go. No consistency in how much or how long she eats. Its so frustrating. Apparently its always on my mind. Last night in my sleep I attempted to breast feed Steve. I wish I were joking and as embarrassing as it is, its too funny of a story not to share. I still cant lie flat on my back due to my incision. So when I sleep at night Im all propped up. Gracie was fussing. I remember my arm was around Steves head and I kept trying to pull his head closer to me thinking he was the baby. Hey - in my own defense, they have the same hairdo! Thank GOD my boob was not out! But after a few seconds of this he says (really puzzled) " What are you doing?" Then I realized what was happening and I heard the baby still fussing and I just busted out laughing. Steve is still asleep and incoherent. He has no idea whats going on. Meanwhile, he sits up and is rifling through the blankets saying "Wheres the baby? Wheres the baby?" And Im still laughing and saying "she's in her bassinet!, Shes just fine!". This is something he does often and did with Ryan as a newborn as well. Or sometimes he will hold a pillow thinking its a baby and rock it. Its really funny to watch! Lord, if someone had seen us, it would have been like a comedy show. He's looking for the baby, Im looking for someone to feed, all the while were both sleeping. Were quite a team arnt we? LOL
