5 month olds are supposed to sleep more than two hours at a time. It’s a rule! My little bundle of joy is clearly not adhearing to the rules. Take last night for example – bed by 7:30 (good), awake at 8:30 (bad), straight back to sleep thanks to a binky and a little pat on the back (good), awake at 10:00 (bad), fed and back to sleep (good), awake at 11, 12, 1 (bad, bad, bad), awake at 3 and still awake at 4:30 (VERY Bad!). Everyone’s awake at 6:30am and I have had about 4 hours of interrupted sleep all night followed b a full day at work.

I just don’t know what to do. I was begging Samuel to go to sleep at 4:30 this morning. Begging. With a five month old. Clearly my mind is not functioning properly.

So this is my call out to the universe – please send some good sleep vibes my way. We all need it, and deserve it.

Thanks for listening.

I know he looks innocent, but don’t be fooled by the binky.
