It's 6:30am in London - what a mistake I've made...?

Question

My 3 month old Daughter is on Neocate formula (for those of you that haven't tasted/smelt it - imagine l*****g between the toes of someone that just ran a marathon and you'll have a good idea about how palatable it is). Anyway, to say she is fussy when drinking this milk is an understatement so after a relatively good nights sleep she was stirring at 6am (she had been in her cot since 6pm) so I decided to be sneaky and make up a bottle and catch her while she was still in her night time mode as she always drinks well at night and doesn't usually put up much of a fight.

Well...I wont be making that mistake again as I am now laying on the living room floor with her and anyone would think she just had an ounce of Coca Cola as she is high as a kite and if she would climb walls, I'm sure she would.

Oh well, looks like it's going to be another L-O-N-G day.

Anyone else up this early/late with a hyper baby?

Answer 1

lol, my daughter has been a great sleeper since birth, goes down at 7 or 8 and sleeps until 9 in the morning. until about a week ago, now she gets up at 5 EVERY MORNING!!!  i swear you could set a clock by her waking times. and she is so happy and full of life i just have to laugh at her. its still dark here at 5 in the morning but she seems to know the sun is coming up and wont go back to sleep for anything. ahhh, little angel aren't they, ha ha. so now we go for a walk when the sun comes up in an effort to tire her out. no such luck yet tho. i think she wakes up for her walk now as she knows its coming.

Answer 2

she slept 12 hours,right? good news is that shes only 3 months so she definately will be napping soon.

Answer 3

my daughter is nocturnal and doesnt go to sleep till 6am :( shes up  all night then again shes only 4 weeks old. lol i bet ur daughter is funny to watch though but im guessing u want to go back to bed. i feel sorry for u lol

Answer 6

Hello there! i am not up with a newborn or anything....but it is 1130pm here in california, US and i cannot sleep due to extreme heartburn. My baby girl is due this friday! Ahh...cant wait to meet her. I dont kno whats worse...not being able to sleep b/c of discomfort from heartburn and pelvic pressure....or when shes here and i am doing feedings every 2 hours! haha. I think maybe the discomfort is worse. But we will see. i will have to thnk back on this comment in about 2 weeks time.
