We had a rough night with our month old daughter sleeping, again. We made sure she was fed, changed, burped, swaddled, loved, rocked, hugged, kissed and did it all again when she would still not quiet down. She just kept crying for 2 hours...or the torturous part, she would be quiet for about 12 minutes, enough for us to doze off, and then let loose the sounds of holy terror.
Because this was the night before a workday, my wife carried the load for most of this so I can make rational decisions at work. My wife is awesome because she rolled over in bed and ask if I could help. She does so much of this on her own because she is such a caring mother and wife. I got up and tried to repeat the steps that she took.
Finally, between both of our efforts, our daughter went to sleep.
Awesome.
