Weaned!

It worked! Ian went to bed last night with only a little fuss. He tried nursing once but after tasting it decided that he didn't want it. And last night he slept - all night! But now I have to adjust. So I am awake at 5:40 am on a Saturday morning. Which isn't too unusual because I get up at 5:30-6 during the week. But... I am awake because I missed seeing Ian last night. A little. And also because I go to bed early since I am usually up in the middle of the night. So I've had my 8 hours - or close to it. Anyway I'm sure I will adjust to sleeping and am looking forward to it :-) Then about that time we'll see about Thing #2. Sorta a daunting idea. Are we ready to go through the last two years over again? I have to think it is a little easier the second time around. You have a little more experience and knowledge. I can change a diaper in my sleep and have many times. And maybe this time we'll get one that sleeps. Who knows. We just have always planned on having more than one. Mostly for Ian's sake. The idea of being an only child sounds a little lonely to me. But it may not be our choice. We will go through the process (YUCK) and see what happens.

I just thought about that last sentence and maybe I should clarify that I don't mean the natural process of trying to have a baby. That's a lot of fun! But I mean the process we have to go through - which is IVF. This isn't fun - it's invasive, expensive, painful and requires a series of shots which make me cranky.
