Much Better

I went to bed at 7:30pm last night and got up at 6:15 this morning. I nursed Ian from 4:15-4:45am, but aside from a few trips to the bathroom and one trip to Ian's room to make sure he was really asleep (because I was in pain and leaking all over the place), I was in bed for about 10 hours! I had a hard time sleeping due to clogged ducts, but still I felt 5 million times better today than I did yesterday. I put Ian down around 6pm, and he woke up about 6:35pm. I fed him and put him back down at 7:15. He woke up and cried at 8 something or other and also again at 11 something or other. Both times we let him cry. I think he might have cried about 15 minutes total between the two episodes. I would have fed him any time after 1am, but he didn't make a peep between midnight and 4am. He got almost 11 hours of sleep last night! That's WAY more than usual. That was very good for me, and it has to also have been good for him. I'm hoping more sleep becomes the norm although I certainly don't plan to regularly go to bed that early!
