No Sleep for the Weary

So, for the last few nights my 2 month old was starting to finally get some regular sleep. I mean, it has only been a few days in a row that she slept more than 2 hours at a time. I was thrilled! For those two days I didn't want to kill my husband & I was in a good mood. Then last night she decides that she wants to wake up every 1.5-2 hours like she had been doing.

I was relieved when my husband told me that he was going to get up with her since the last two nights I was getting up with her. And by the way, since her birth I have been the one primarily getting up. SO, I was happy that I may actually get some rest. Midnight rolls around & my little chunky monkey decides she is hungry. Who gets up? Is it my husband, is it me? Hmmm, if you said me, you are right. I get up & was thinking I was just going to help him hold her as he made the bottle, the next thing I know he's getting a midnight snack & I'm holding her. I stay calm thinking, ok, maybe he'll eat & then take her. So he comes back...I wait...I give it about 7 minutes or so before I tell him something.

I didn't mean to, but I did rip into him like a monkey on a banana...but in my defense I was tired & a bit annoyed (maybe not a bit). So, he stays up with me. Then the next feeding comes again after 2 hours, OYE! He gets up...& here's where it's my fault...I foolishly tell him, "you have an early game in the morning, I'll take her." What was I thinking? I have to get up early too, she doesn't let me sleep in...UGH! I sit there resenting him, but it was my doing.

Then the next time it's an hour & 15 minutes later....again, he hands her off to me & I make my gripes, but he's going to sleep.

It's not worth it...these stupid moments filled with sleep in the eyes...but when you are awoken every hour & a half to two hours --- things don't come out how you want them too.

Now we are both mad at each other & I am hoping we can find some middle ground. The good thing is that neither of us hold grudges...but, who will budge first? Is it my husband or is it me? Oye, here we go again. LOL. That's all I can do these days with little sleep, misunderstandings left & right with my husband, & a crazy fun filleds life...all I can do is laugh. I'll let you know how tonight goes...I am sure I am NOT the only mom to have a night like this with her partner.
