Slip Sliding Away

On the feeding front, Alice continued to feed almost continuously--minus a break with Auntie B. and her amazing sleep-inducing superpowers--until about 1am last night. Jason took care of her through the dead of night, allowing me to get some sleep, and she got a fairly long stretch of sleep in this morning. We had our first daytime feeding about 11:30am, since when she has slept cozily, curled up in the boppy next to me. She's starting to make more noise and I'll probably wake her up soon, to try to keep on a 3-hour schedule. It has been a real relief to have a couple of hours of downtime--last night I was so exhausted that I got weepy again for the first time in over a week. Several of the online moms have said that their babies tended to sleep more the day after a clusterfeed, so I have vague hopes of a nap this afternoon, which should help to keep me on a more even keel.
