Sleeping through the night
I have been praising the Lord the past three days because my son who is now 6 weeks old has been sleeping through the night. When I mean sleeping through the night, I mean from 11pm to 6 or 7am. I have been waking up so refreshed. I literally feel like I brand new woman.
The first morning I remember waking up to my husbands alarm and thinking to myself “did my son cry last night?” and then I talked myself out of going to his room to check on him because I didn’t want to wake him up if he was sleeping soundly. An hour later he started to cry and I went and picked him up for his morning feeding. It was awesome. The second morning he woke up a little earlier, but after I soothed him, he went to bed for another hour. The third morning he woke up a little after 7am.
I tell you…I am counting my blessings. Things have been emotionally draining with all the financial issues, postpartum pregnancy stuff, fatigue and just being a mom. Sleep is truly a kiss from God.
