So last night we put Owen down about 30 minutes early (about 7pm). It may sound really early, but some nights he goes down at 7:30 so this wasn’t too much of a stretch. And the 30 minutes was the recommended tester starting time. He was out by 7:30, which was good. And we kept our fingers crossed.
Unfortunately, as it turned out, it wasn’t meant to be.
He was up at…11:30! And not just a “happened to wake up and will fall back asleep” up, but a “crying desperately for food” up. |-| That meant I basically had an hour nap. XX(
I really think something else had to be at work, because other nights, he has gone down at about the same time (i.e. give or take a half hour) and slept the entire night!
So after that 6oz bottle, he was up again at 4:30 (so, four more hours for me). We haven’t had two bottles in one night in FOREVER!!! I thought maybe he finally felt better, but this morning he was still congested and coughing. So who knows.
All I know is I am tiiiiiii-red today.
