Sleeping Problem

Dongdong had been doing well until this past summer. We followed the routine every night. Dinner, playtime (watching TV most of the time, I know, we are lazy parents), bath, story time, saying good night to mommy and baby brother before going to bed with Daddy.

During this past summer, since mommy was not working and didn't have the pressure to get up early, and Daddy had back problems, Dongdong started coming back to sleep with Beibei and Mommy in the "big bed". With both of them turning, toiling, kicking, and screaming, mommy cannot get much quality sleep at all - this is why she is blogging at 3 am.

Beibei is an easy baby, even though sleeping is his biggest problem. I have to confess that he wakes up way more often than what I have hoped for - I don't even have the courage to count how many times he "screams" at night. I am jealous to hear from other moms that their babies start to sleep though the night since they are two months old. How can that happen?

Daddy has been having back pain for a while, which is quite unusual. He complains about the small bed- too soft and not good for his back. The good news is he gets a lot more sleep these days thanks to Dongdong and Beibei. He now goes to bed earlier that he used to. He told mommy yesterday morning that he had to feel refreshed after sleeping for almost ten hours.
