May 2, 3:45 am: Sylvia is spending her first night in her crib tonight. It’s (I believe) the first time since she was born that I’ve gotten out of bed at night. That’s one of my favorite bits about having her sleep right next to me. I barely have to come-to at night to feed her. But the last week or so, my right hand has been numb every morning, so I figured that my body had had enough of sleeping funny (my arm off to the side over her head) and she should try out her new room.
I’ve gotten out of bed a couple times to nurse, and she went right back to sleep this last time. But I didn’t. For the first time since she was born, I tossed and turned and couldn’t sleep. And my hand is still numb even without her in bed! So I decided to get up to hang out on the computer for a bit and listen to the thunder storm before heading back to bed. Bon Soir!
