After hitting bottom two nights ago with the sleep, sweet baby j woke up only once last night. The cluster-feeding has improved as well.

Might we have turned a corner?

Even if it’s just a fluke, I’ll take it.

And he happily took another bottle. Of course I’m overjoyed for me, but also for R. Feeding a child and having him drift happily asleep in one’s arms is a pleasure that must be shared if at all possible.

    It’s going to be a wild and wooly 24 hours (and I’m talking about you on maternity leave - not those of us spending the day with church.) Have a splendid Christmas with your brood!

    Can’t wait to hear details.

    PS Sleep in heavenly peace.

    wow, that sounds lovely. Go SBJ! We’re on a doctor-imposed-every-three-hours schedule around here. Mama and Daddy are wasted. Baby seems to be doing well, thanks be to God. Peace to the rm household this Christmas.

    Hope there has been sleep as well as joy over the past few days!
