Petra was sleeping beautifully (note the past tense). She would wake me up like clockwork at 3am and 6am every night. Five straight hours of sleep was amazing. More recently, it's become 2 to 3 hours at a stretch. At the most. Last night she woke us up 5 times. I'm sure it could be worse.
With the drooling faucet on full blast and her swiping at her ears, I think teething is the obvious culprit. I guess the old adage fits -- as soon as you get used to anything with kids, it changes. And I'm sure it won't be the first time I say this: this too shall pass. It's a good thing she's so darn cute -- even at night. When her shifting and squirming wakes me up, she's as likely to flash a smile at me in the dim light as a grimace.
