Sleep Deprived

I wish I could sleep through the night again! One day? Soon?. We've got this new regime with Harry going on whereby when he cries in the night G will go into him, offer him a hug (usually rejected), give him a cup of water, and then leave the room and close the door. This provokes extremely loud protests quickly followed by him dropping off to sleep again. I am hoping that after a few days of this he will realise he isnt' getting milk, isn't getting into my bed, and that he'll break his routine and sleep through again... but he's persisting with it so far.

I'm finding it hard to sleep because of this upper arm itch too..... it's so bad it stops me getting to sleep and then wakes me at least once during the night. Surfing the web I've come across so many people with this same problem & the general consensus seems to be that the pills the Doc wants me to take once I've given birth are the only thing that will stop it...... but it's getting to that point which is proving tough because nothing I do at the moment seems to calm it down, it's probably the worst it's ever been.

So combine that with Harry and I'm probably getting around 4 or 5 hours per night which is just NOT ENOUGH. And to top it off today I've woken up with a headache, sinus pain, and feeling stuffy and head cold-ish.... and there is a really nasty bug going around so arghhh, that's just what I need, NOT!

On a positive note, I sold something via Amazon (the 'buy used' section) and got all the money back that I paid for it! I am now going to list all my unwanted DVD's ... maybe some books too. The only negative side of it is going to the post office (I hate the Post Office!) but it might be worth it for a few bucks.
