The first few years I was asked daily, "Jesus, are you ok?" when walking into work. Mine is 9 now and still wakes up to knock things over and turn every light in the house on at 5 am.
Whenever someone says they have an infant now, I tend to ask them if they're actually fine, lol. The first two years are rough, but it gets better fast.
Wow that can be tough. Mine is only 2.25 so I guess potentially it an last many years...
Counter point, 7 and 9 here, and they've slept through the nights every night, since they were both 3(ish), minus perhaps a night a year for each usually due to being sick or what-have-you.
I realize I'm lucky -- but perhaps you will be too!
Thanks, sounds good. Mine is particularly whiny so I don't have high hope...
I hear you brother. I saw every sunrise for 6 years.
Thanks, I'm happy that you managed to sleep better after those six years.
It's still not ideal. For example, 2 nights ago, one of my daughters woke us up at 11:30pm and the other at 5:30am. But at least they can play together while we lie in bed.
