1 step forward, 2 steps back

Gosh darn it!!! Last night was the worst night's sleep Dori has had in a long time (and that's saying something). Of course, yesterday he just had to wake up with a cold, right? You're not supposed to sleep train when a baby is sick. We still tried to do modified sleep training last night (letting him cry for a couple minutes, then going in and comforting him) but we had a bad, bad, bad night's sleep. And then Dorian cried so much around 5am that he woke himself up and decided he was up for the day. James was nice enough to let me sleep in a bit longer, then I took over and he went back to bed. This SUCKS!!!!! I was so excited that maybe it had worked...when he is over his cold, are we going to be back to square one again??? I don't think I can handle any more crying. I am so tired of being so tired.

we've done the sleep training stuff too... some days are just better than others. Hudson will do great for a while... and then go right back to square one. It's certainly frustrating!!
