Thanks for your support

I just wanted to take a minute to thank everyone who has offered advice and support.  I really appreciate it.

In fact, one of the things I wanted to post about was the need for parents to make sure to occasionally search the web for stories with whatever they’re struggling with.  Everytime I’ve looked up sleep problems, I’ve ended up reading about someone else’s experience.  Inevitably, it was WAY worse than mine.  While I felt for them, it really gave perspective to the fact that he woke up every hour last night from 7pm until 2am… at least he was sleeping for an hour every hour!

It’s horrible to think that other people’s trials can make you feel better, but they remind you that you’re not alone and it could be worse.  You appreciate your circumstance a little more and hug your child a little tighter and hold him a little longer the next time he wakes up.

I’ve got some more interesting stuff that’s happened over the past couple of nights.  I’m hoping to get a chance to write it up soon.
