So yesterday we made the journey to the evil children's superstore that shall not be named and picked up this little gem that has restored my faith in the world....or maybe just in LM's ability to sleep. So far so good. I think that when she attempts to wake herself up every half hour the vibrator lulls back into a sense of security that tells her little baby brain "no need to waaaake upppp....you looooove the crib.....mommy will kill herself if you wake uppppp..." and so on. As on right now she has been asleep for an hour and a half and hasn't really stirred. I know that this is not something to get too excited about, but it's a good start. My goal is to get her to midnight before she wakes up the first time.
There's only one problem with "the best invention ever", it's set on a timer and turns itself off every 20-30 minutes. Ugh! don't they know I need it to run indefinitely? The creators thought they were very clever adding a sound activation feature. When the baby cries it starts vibrating again. That would be great except that by the time LM starts making noise like that...it's all over. If she's crying she's awake and my ass is back in the f-ing rocking chair.
It's not such a big deal when we are awake, I just carry the receiver around with me and make sure to push the on button every time it goes off, but what about when I want to sleep? What am I supposed to do then? Bastards. They put sleep so close within reach and then yank it away with their stupid battery saving features.
