I Will Never Sleep Again


The amazing thing about having kids is that you (and your body) conveniently forget all the painful stuff (like labor and not getting any sleep) just in time for you to have more kids. In fact, after having both my girls sans epidural, and after yelling and crying during labor, immediately after they were delivered, I thought, "oh, that wasn't so bad, I could do it again!" I guess we have to be able to forget, or else we'd never survive as a species.

Anyway, Jessalyn is almost 4 weeks old. She refuses to sleep from 8:30 PM to 1 or 2 AM. I have no reprieve, not that I would anyway because I am breast feeding. And boy, I am TIRED. I remember now how I felt when Kara was that little. At night, when Jessalyn won't sleep and I am exhausted to the max, I think, "I am never going to get to sleep again!"

Thankfully, that's not true. Only two more weeks.

Man oh man.
