We fed Abby at 9 pm and put her down. She slept from then until 5 am. EIGHT hours!!!
Hazel, on the other hand...we fed her at the same time and then tried to put her down. She wouldn't have it, and basically cried/screamed/fussed off and on (mostly on) until about 1 am. Mostly she calmed down when being held, and she finally went to sleep when I put her pacifier in and held her hand until she was super drowsy. Ah...my current high maintenance twin.
Probably one of the more frustrating aspects of last night was seeing one twin sleep peacefully (and wishing you could do the same) while the other is crying and screaming incessantly. Not to mention that figuring out WHY Hazel was so upset was an exercise in futility (mostly - at one point she had a pretty dirty diaper).
I'm now up a mere hour or so after going back to bed because I have jury duty today. How funny is that? This is only the third time ever I've gotten a summons and it happens during my maternity leave. Fortunately, it is for municipal court, so on the really off chance I get selected the trial won't last more than a day or two. I have several things I still want to do before going back to work, though, and am running out of time to get them done!
