There is not much to do when you are up at 4 am nursing. Last night or this morning I was thinking to myself that it is amazing that I can't last 10 minutes on a treadmill before I get tired but I never get tired when the "mom pat" is put to use - you know the constant patting of the back for burping or soothing purposes? I can pat his back for hours and never get tired. Why is that?
Also, put me in a chair or any other unlikely napping spot and I won't sleep at all - I can't sleep on a plane to save my life unless I am medicated, but put a baby in my arms and I can sleep in any place and in any position. I am not saying it is comfortable - I have woken up several times in the rocker with a kink in my neck - but I manage to sleep. I am sure it has to do with sleep deprivation - the more tired I am the easier it is to sleep in weird places. But it still boggles me that I can do it.
I also think if I plugged Jeremy's nose to stop his snoring, how long would it take before he realized he wasn't breathing? I never actually try this because that might mean prison time.

I feel ya on the snoring husband! Is it possible for a daddy to snore louder only when a mommy is sitting across the room in a rocking chair nursing a tiny boy at 4am? I think it is. It totally interrupts the nursing nap that mommy REALLY needs. I might try throwing something next time. I'll let you know how it goes:)
That is awesome. I think that is sleep deprivation for sure. Although I heard somewhere that it's not illegal to have thoughts like that. :)
Hummmmmm Between George & Kemo having snore wars I just poke George til it stops or he turns over you need something to poke at him like a harpoon!
Interesting. But, I must tell you - - - you've been tagged. Sorry. Check my blog to see.
