Sleepless Nights

We are having many sleepless nights ever since the baby is back in our house after confinement. It seems that the baby biological timeclock goes haywire. He sleeps throughout the day and do not want to sleep at night. We tried to make him awake during the day but it seems that he was so sound asleep that whatever we do did not bother him. At night, he could stay up for many hours and both of us need to always try many methods to make him sleep or not crying.

The worse case that happened was when he was wide awake from 8pm till 5am. Since my husband need to work the next day, I had to manage the baby on my own from midnight onward. I only had 2 hours sleep before he wake up again for his morning bath and feed etc. With the cleaning and washing and feeding during the day, I started to having headaches after few occasions.

Many people that we talked too says that this usually ends when the baby reaches 3rd month. I really hope it does that I won't be able to manage if this goes on when I started working.
