The Collapse
Day 7 - It's only mid-day and Michelle and I are exhausted. Lian kept us up seemingly all night. My Daily Baby Tracker of her sleeping and eating patterns has failed me. Much as I would like to detect a pattern to her diurnal and nocturnal routines, all I can conclude with any degree of accuracy is that in 80% of the cases, a sleep period will follow a feeding.
Her "bewitching hour" as we like to call it - that period sometime between dawn and dusk and dawn when she refuses to fall asleep and fusses about - has gone from 10pm-12am, then 8-10am, and today 10am-12pm.
As that woman in the plane one day told me - it took her 10 days to figure out her babies' daily sleep routines before she then was able to manipulate them so that she could get a 6-hour stretch of sleep. That means 3 more days of the Daily Baby Tracker to uncover something, anything, that will give us insight into little Lian's cycles.
