Last night Luke woke up at 11:30, 12:30, 1:20. Each time he was up for at least half an hour. Not a good night for sleeping.
The main problem is that I have no idea why he was awake. It is likely to have been his cold---he had a lot of phlegm in his throat, was coughing some. On the other hand, it could always be his tummy---one of my great fears is that I ate something that traveled through his system and is making him sick. He also puts everything in his mouth, so he could have eaten almost anything. It could be his teeth, which as ever are trying to poke through. It could be his newfound standing ability, although he was whimpering in my arms last night, and that doesn't seem like his being excited by a new ability. Poor baby, he was so very sad.
I have long wished for babies with indicator lights: wet, hungry, tired, fever, etc. For now we are stuck with mother's intuition, which does not always work when needed, and all I can do is hold him.
In other news, my sister ran in a half marathon today! She is so impressive. To support her, I went for a walk around the block =) Go Runnergirl!
