Baby sleep is one of the least linear things on this planet. Do yourself a favor and decide not to stress about it now. Sometimes it sucks, sometimes it doesn't. Sometimes you can make it better if you try. Sometimes you can't. Sometimes you do something that screws it up. And sometimes it just goes to hell regardless of what you've done. The only thing that you can count on is the fact that morning will come, and you will somehow get through the night.

And it is GOOD for the Monkey to get time to bond with your husband, and vice versa. Having my husband have a significant amount of time on his own with our babies when I went back to work was one of the best things we did. Really.

Hang in there. It gets easier, I swear.

Really wish I could get to the gym. It's across the street from our condo, which unfortunately is 30-45 minutes drive from work. When I'm home with Monkey, I can't go to the gym or go running (although a nice walk with him in the stroller is nice, weather permitting). Only been able to get out once for a run so far, and it felt so great. As soon as the weather warms up and I get a hang of the pumping and experiment timing, I'll definitely use some of my down time and work to go for a run. I soooo miss the endorphins...
