A First for Mommy

Kamden has co-slept with Jeff and I since our first night home. (I know this can be a bit controversial, so I will leave it after the next comment and if need be we can agree to disagree.) I have no problem whatsoever with Kamden sharing our bed, and neither does Jeff. We have, however, started getting him into his crib, at least a little at a time. Generally, Kam falls asleep by 8:00 PM. Once making sure he is good and asleep, he goes into his crib. Now, most nights, he stays in his crib only until he wakes for his first feeding, usually between 11 PM and 1 AM, then I tend to fall asleep while he is nursing and he stays in the bed with us the rest of the night. Tonight, I made a conscious decision to stay awake until he finished nursing and then put him back into his crib. He stayed asleep. I feel like a giant need for being awake almost an hour later, blogging via my blackberry just in case I MIGHT hear him wake. LOL I guess mom's have just as much to learn as the little humans they grow and give life to...
