The second, support your almost 3 year old son in his assertion that he can sleep through the night in undies, so that you can comfort him and change his entire bed at 4am when he wakes cold, wet, and disoriented.<br /><br />I will recommend, if you want to splurge, Bed Bath and Beyond sells sheets that are organic Eucalyptus or something that are pretty much the best addition to our bed, ever. Between bumping the A/C down a bit and the new sheets, we are in heaven!Maggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18000713602351136036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-718744441571326512011-04-20T21:54:02.720-05:002011-04-20T21:54:02.720-05:00My advice to ensure a terrible night's sleep: ...My advice to ensure a terrible night's sleep: buy a sleep number bed. Spend three years gradually changing the number, because they recommend you stay on each number for at least a couple weeks, trying to find YOUR number. Once you've been through all of the numbers, and still haven't found your number, start all over, because you spent more than a small car on this wonder bed, and your determined to make it work. Spend days with crick in neck and nights tossing and turning. You might want to invest in heavy duty concealer for the dark circles that develop under your eyes.<br /><br />I've decided that if I can survive 5 years with this bed, I won't feel so bad about getting a new one. 18 months to go. Not that I'm counting or anything.CaraBeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04614627167922944626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-17140059467324224162011-04-20T18:19:33.039-05:002011-04-20T18:19:33.039-05:00Believe it or not, Mama Tough Love gets lots of sl...Believe it or not, Mama Tough Love gets lots of sleep in these post-sleep-training months.

Take your baby on an overnight trip, and let him sleep in your bed in the hotel room so you don't have to haul a pack n' play. The next night, he will waken every hour and a half if you put him in his crib, because he wants to be right next to you again.<br />Or, get yourself a 14 year old dog with symptoms of senility. Order up a thunderstorm, so you can be awake from the hours of 3 and 5 AM with said dog panting and pacing and trying to dig holes in the corners of your bedroom to escape.E...https://www.blogger.com/profile/04405932437380095945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3436677792458357476.post-75787849496793560802011-04-18T23:48:05.718-05:002011-04-18T23:48:05.718-05:00Yes, yes, I have one!

Listen to his nonsensical knock-knock jokes while trying not to fall asleep in the doorway. Tell him not to flush the toilet (as he flushes the toilet) because it will wake the baby. Send your son back to bed. Soothe the wide-awake baby. Try to rest. Send your son back to bed again and tell him that, yes, you are quite certain <i>Sesame Street</i> is not on yet. Soothe the baby again. Try to rest. Repeat these last three steps until it is, in fact, time for <i>Sesame Street.</i> Et, voila!Staciahttp://myfluffybunnies.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
