Darkness, madness, mental problems-ness!
So I read various studies that say "sleep issues in young babies is the leading cause of maternal depression".
Need I elaborate?
I feel alone in any efforts to make her sleep problems a priority.
Nobody else seems to care or see it as a problem.
Nobody else seems worried or stressed.
Nobody else seems to notice that I am disappearing...lost...confused...can't focus, can't think.
Can only cry. From physical and even more so...mental exhaustion.
Can't understand why she never sleeps and when she does why it's usually in someone else's arms.
I think she hates me.
I feel like everyone hates me.
Then again my period is not far from the horizon so I am sure it isn't helping things.
Good talking with you tonight. I know it is a problem, it sucks not having a baby that sleeps. I hope that you find a solution that works for the both of you.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, we would love to have you come and visit for a little bit, I know that Mitch would hate it, but maybe it would be good. You are welcome anytime. We love you.
That is so hard! It can make you insane! I wish you were closer...I would be your bouncer while you sleep trained your cute little Liv. How can I help?? Did you get my e-mail a month or so ago?
ReplyDeleteBy the way, just know that everything will pass and pretty soon she'll be 4 and you'll be wondering what in the heck happened...that is how I feel anyway.
