Growth Spurt!

This is probably about day 7 of cranky baby nursing every 3 hours around the clock. Mind you, she's not a newborn, she's almost 9 months old.

I'm exhausted , cranky, snappy, and craving silence.

I don't particularly want to eat, but know I need to be eating.

I'm going to sleep when the baby does in the evening, and waking up when the toddler does in the morning-- way more sleep than an adult usually needs.

I had forgotten how rough on the body nursing baby growth spurts can be. Add that to my usual seasonal bit of depression and I feel sort of bad for my toddler.

We'll all get through it, but I sure hope it's soon!
