The sides are mesh, so she could see us. When she could see us, she cried more. Even when she couldn't see us, b/c we were on the other end of the room, it still took her a long time to fall asleep. When she did fall asleep, she didn't sleep very long (nap:30 minutes, night time: 4 hour stretches).
Since we were in a motel, the walls were kinda thin, and someone pounded on the wall when Kate cried in the middle of the night. It made me feel so bad. I was trying to let her cry a little, so she could fall back to sleep. She cried again about an hour later, and the punched the wall again. :( So then I was so worried people would be upset, so I held her anytime she cried. (Kate sometimes needs to fuss a little bit before she falls asleep.) It was really hard. She was so tired. I felt so bad for her, and I also felt bad that I had become so upset. Any advice?
How could someone ever feel frustrated with this little lamb?
This was our room at the Econo Lodge. Greg slept in one bed, I slept in the other, and Kate's crib was next to me. I feel tired just remembering those 5 nights.
