I truly hope this will change in 10 weeks or so. <br />It's good to hear that it is manageable. ;-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749404111767311785.post-33171667482323536242010-06-03T19:51:34.921-07:002010-06-03T19:51:34.921-07:00Bet you never thought you'd be so happy to sur...Bet you never thought you'd be so happy to survive on so little sleep, eh?

I am...Yes, like katery said, it's not forever. I am getting the same advice, "Sleep while you can!" and I have the same reaction that you did - well ok but I don't see how that's going to help me later! One thing to think about - humans' natural sleep cycle goes in roughly 3 hour bouts. Even if we squish 2 or 3 together every night, it's perfectly sustainable to only sleep 3-ish hrs at a time. My dad had to live that way once when he was sailing a boat accross the Pacific by himself. I'm sure there are plenty of examples. That's what I'm going to remind myself when the going gets tough. Altho I don't know what I will do when I have to go back to work and need to cram that magic 8 hours into, well, 8 hours.Astridhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15910745805460514947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-749404111767311785.post-50493947991133979592010-06-03T05:05:55.635-07:002010-06-03T05:05:55.635-07:00you'll get more sleep soon, louise slept throu...you'll get more sleep soon, louise slept through the night when she was six or seven weeks old, she doesn't ANYMORE, but it was gloious while it lasted and even though she only occasionally sleeps through the night now, she still sleeps for good long stretches of four to six hours at a time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
