sleep? or no sleep?

      When I first became pregnant every mom I would talk to would say things like " You better get enough sleep now because when you have a baby you wont get ANY sleep."  After  Dylan was born he was up screaming all night because he was a little piggy and needed to eat. After he ate he would scream because he was colic. It was a BLAST! (said in the MOST sarcasm ever) 
      After having Mason I learned things were a little different. From the time Mason was born he didn't wake up at ALL through the night. I know what you moms are thinking "Must be nice." However I would wake up through the night to make sure he was fine. Knowing your baby should wake up and he doesn't is a little unsettling. The doctor said he slept through the night because of his low muscle tone. So instead of the baby crying to wake me up we had to set an alarm clock every three hours for him to eat. Weird I know.
      After 3 months the doctor gave us the okay to let Mason sleep through the night. He was well big enough he could go without the feedings at night. Shortly after Mason was on monitors for sleep apnea. The alarm would go off in the middle of the night. It sounded like a siren. It was OBNOXIOUS! The idea when the alarm would go off  meant Mason would stop breathing and I would have to wake him up. Throughout the rest of the night I was shaken up I would hold Mason or stay in his room and dose on his glider.
       Now Mason is on Oxygen. He actually doesn't pull on it he likes it. HOWEVER he doesn't stay in one spot when he sleeps so there has been times the tube has fallen off. He has been wrapped around the tubes, the tubes have fallen around his neck! AHHHHH!!!!! I'm constantly up checking on him. Its scary enough he is on oxygen but the thought of the oxygen being right there and him not getting any scares me and him being tangled up in his tubes mortifies me.

      I have a feeling I wont be getting sleep until he is much older. Oh well nothing Caffeine cant fix! :)
