I feel that I have made many sacrifices for your well being. I have done so willingly and with much love for you, my Baby. However, I cannot continue to sacrifice my well being with such a lack of sleep. I do enjoy our middle of the night feedings – the ones that occur twice a night. The ones you fall quickly asleep afterwards and reward me with another four hours of sleep. I do not enjoy having to help you back to sleep after only two hours of sleep – all night long. This is not healthy for you, me, or your daddy. A lack of sleep does horrible things to people and causes them to say horrible things and act in horrible ways. It just doesn't work.
Please take this into account tonight when you go to sleep.
With much love,
Your very tired mommy

UGH. I remember this all too clearly. I thought I was going to go insane one weekend from the non-stop feeding and very little sleeping.
Good luck! (and nice post!)
