I have no idea when I took the time to stop by MoM last.
![]() Life has been happening and I have prioritized my time elsewhere. To make a long story short: I got a job back in March, bought a house in July and had a wonderful baby girl on September 13th. I am now on maternity leave and has no job to go back to, but that wouldn't be relevant just yet anyway so that's fine. I actually think I haven't been here much since last years quest. I probably won't have time to enter this year on account of feeding and entertaining a baby. I'll try to take a peek in here once in a while. It's nice to take the mind off all the baby drool and diapers once in a while. ![]() |

Well congratulations! Welcome to Motherhood. If you get through the first three months without colic, and baby sleeps well, and doesn't scream the house down with teething, then 9-18 months are probably the hardest. Then you get a few months of bliss before the terrible twos start, and then you get another kid or two, and then they're teenagers...
![]() Seriously though- it's great, ain't it? |

![]() ![]() Our problem is actually the old cat that wakes us up 4 to 6 times during the night. She is 18,5 years old and not feeling so great, but not bad enough to put to sleep. Ironic that the baby sleeps and the cat wakes us up. |

Kibby started sleeping through the night at four months. Then got sick and was up several night coughing. She was over a year old before she slept through the night again.

Given a choice Kibby would still rather be up all night and sleep all day.
