I need to catch some Z's.

Everything seems better when you've had sleep. So today everything is terrible. Sebs feet are touching the blinds and I want to cut my eyes out, Peppa pigs voice is making me want to saw my ears off and Seb hasn't napped today.

Daisy is snoozing, thank The Lord above. Come tonight and she would've forgot how to close her eyes and shut the hell up. She is an awful night sleeper, like 98% horrible. 

For the last 3 months she has been waking up to 8 times a night. This is most nights, I can recall about 7 days out of 80 where she has woken once or twice. Four of those were after we saw a sleep consultant. She drove me to the brink of insanity that I needed help, I needed paid help. So last Friday night, an amazing woman Claire came to our home to discuss tactics to get Dais waking once a night, the gentle way. So we had a plan and the plan worked guys! For four whole nights. For those glorious four nights, I was up a total of one time per night. One morning J and I even woke on our own at 7am, no kid standing in our face asking for food and no kid yelling in her cot for boob. I thought Christmas had come early, but knowing Daisy Deane like I do, I knew it could not last, and it didn't. 

So for the last 3 nights we've been awake for hours and up multiple times. This girl is strong willed, she may have won the battle but rest assured, I will win the war. I'm sticking to this routine and the plan we have in place to get her sleeping on track and it will work. Or I'll die trying. 

I know babies (and even toddlers) aren't always great sleepers, I have a toddler who still wakes up some nights, don't judge me for needing help for I know frequent night waking is common but I'm not okay with it, I need sleep to be the best parent I can be.
