Correction

Remember what I said last week about enjoying nighttime feedings and how pleasant the evenings had become?

Clearly, I was tempting the fates. TheGirl has suddenly begun waking up four, five, even six times a night and, thus, so have I. She must be going through a growth spurt, because she seems hungry each time. Last night, we put her down at 9:30. She woke up at midnight, 1:30, 2:30, 4:30 and 6. It's only been a week, and yet ...

Pre-baby, I had this fairly common dream in which Judybat and I were in the mood to, you know, but we couldn't find any place with privacy. The dream consisted of my increasingly frustrating efforts to find a nice, quite spot for some adult alone time. I'm having the same dream these days -- except now I'm exhausted, and all I want is a nice, quiet place to sleep.

What's really frustrating is the regression we're seeing. From six weeks to two months, TheGirl slept through the night, midnight to 7 or even 8 a.m. Then she started waking up once. Now ...

Dang. It's a good thing she's cute.
