How the F* Did This Happen?!
Posted on | September 5, 2009 | 3 Comments
My son has been sleeping perfectly on his Boppy Lounger since he first came home from the hospital. He seems more comfortable on the pillow than a flat surface so he sleeps more content. I know he’s getting big now, nearly too big for the lounger, but for now it’s still a fit and we’ve continued to make use of it. Night after night, without any problem, I just prop him up on it and place it beside me when we settle down for our good nights rest.
So umm .. imagine my surprise when I was woken in the middle of the night by my cell phone only first to see my son completely missing from the Lounger! “OMFG!” I thought “Jack rolled on the floor! But he didn’t make a sound .. is he OK? OMG! He can’t be!”
Except no. Before I could get up to panic I realized that I felt a warmth next to my body, a “bump” beside my gut and a tiny hand resting on my giant boobs. I looked down and …
There he was. Jack had somehow removed himself from the angled Boppy, nestled himself perfectly aligned against my body, tucked himself in and was fast asleep next to me. I shit you not.
What the f* am I gonna do with this kid? How did this happen? He’s just too much!

haha, that’s great!
Anna also slept on a Boppy lounger next to me for those first couple months. As soon as she was too big (and moved too much!) we messed around with the crib so that one side of the mattress was up slightly higher than the other (because Anna also slept much better when she was slightly propped up).
That lasted us another month or so, and then… well, she got to the point where she would end up on the opposite side of the crib by morning, so I finally had to put the crib mattress back in its appropriate place and she had to start sleeping flat on her back. She adjusted to the new position just fine, and I’m sure Jack will too when that time comes

You guys were right. As a tiny baby Jack hated the flat bed, but now he makes it a happy to climb off the Boppy nightly and lay flat next to me. I guess he’s into it now.
