A quick update on the sleeping situation.
Don't judge, unless you've been in my shoes with my child, you don't get that right :)
So after another entire night of NO sleep and I literally mean she was up ALL night, the pediatrician prescribed something to help Amelia sleep. She told me to give her 1/2 a pill an hour before bed. Of course, I hate giving medicine to my child so I gave 1/4 of the pill. Two hours later she was still in there talking up a storm--I mean Mickey, Donald, Daisy, Minnie and whoever else she could imagine was talking.
I had it and went to the fridge and got a cup of coke zero, took it in the room and she drank it. 10 minutes later...SILENCE!
She slept all night! WOOHOO!
The pediatrician wants me to give the full 1/2 pill so I'll try that tonight but this weekend I'm going to try the coke zero again. I guess I'm doing testing on my child but I need to do what I can to help her brain keep growing...and my sanity not go any further down.
