B was a miracle baby. She slept through the night the day she came home from the hospital. I think she was fussy one night a few months ago that kept us up. There was a period where if she lost her pacifier, she would cry out and you would have to put it back in.
This was not so the last five night. She has been preparing us for what it will (hopefully not) be like when the newest baby comes along. She has been screaming in the middle of the night. She is inconsolable. When you pick her up, she wriggles to get out of your hands, but do not put her down! She cries for about a half hour then is so exhausted, she passes out when you put her back down in her crib.
Sean and I are rookies at this. We truly look at each other and have no idea what to do. Too funny. Last night was better, only up for a quick cry once. Let's hope this phase is over. I sure am not loving it.

One word: Motrin.
Until all teeth come in, any sleep problems get blamed squarely on teething Chez Slacker and there's nothing a little Motrin can't handle!
(E was like that, too. Slept like a champ until 14 months ... one month of hell and then she returned to our fantastic sleeper. It sucked, lemme tell you!)
