I hate my life. Baby decided to wake up and throw a fit at 1 am, after going to sleep at 9:45 and waking up around 10:15 to eat again. After I calmed him down while fighting with Jeremy (yes, I woke his ass up for this fun, I wasn't about to be the only one suffering last night) around 1:45 I had major problems falling asleep. Baby woke up at 4:30, ate...went back to sleep. Woke up sometime between that and 8, ate...fell asleep on me. Then I woke up at 8 with a sore arm and put him back in his crib. But, that was it for baby, he decided to wake up.
Everytime Jack gets a little fussy, the very first thing Jeremy wants to do is give him some baby tylenol. I'm not comfortable with medicating my baby all the time, so we always end up fighting when he says he's going to give him some. If nothing else works and he seems like he's in pain instead of just in a bad mood I will give him some on occasion. Just because medicine makes his life better he assumes it will help the baby. I don't want Jack to grow up and have a drug problem like his daddy.
Jeremy says he doesn't have a drug problem because it's not interfering with his life. While I tend to agree some of the time, I think having to take 4-6 (or more) Tramadol every single day lest you face horrible cold sweaty throwing up death withdrawal and that he doesn't even feel anything from it anymore...that's a problem in my book. If the drugs aren't even fun and you only take them to maintain, I call that a problem. Me, I only take some when I can't deal with my legitimate back pain or on mornings like this morning when I've gotten very little sleep and I'm not going to make it through the day without a little something extra to perk me up and be a good and fun mommy.
I think it's time for a Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce Latte with an extra shot of espresso...I'm sure that has High Fructose Corn Syrup in it (which is why we're all so fat, by the way) and probably some Hydrogenated Oil too!!! I guess I should check, but that's my treat and if I can't have that I'll be sad. I might just break down and buy a coffee maker even though coffee is bad for you and tea is good for you.
I guess you could say I have a caffine problem.
