night time struggle
At night time I feel like I have depression. My little one will sometimes sleep for five to seven hours but it never feels like enough. If he sleeps for seven hours it's because he fell asleep at seven pm or earlier so I'm not in bed for another three hours at least trying to get the house picked up since I nap with him throughout the day.
I'm not sure if I actually have depression because during the day time hours I'm fine. It's just times like this when he wakes up after five or more hours of sleeping and decides he doesn't need any more sleep.. I feel like a horrible mother because I just want him to sleep through the night. My husband asks what he can do but I'm basically the sole caregiver due to the fact that I have boobs and the milk.
We are trying to get our little one who is now ten weeks out of sleeping in the swing and into sleeping in his pack and play in our room.
On nights like tonight however I find myself sitting here in the living room while I watch him swinging praying he'll go to sleep so I can move him to the pack and play and get some sleep myself. However more than likely I'll end up sleeping on the sofa which puts me in a sour mood because I want nothing more than to sleep in my bed with my husband.. sometimes I wonder why I even wanted kids..
