Night 4

Last night was rough. Emily was up on and off from 2-4 and then I did 4-5. I think in this period, Eva woke up twice and Eli woke up twice. The thing is, I don't think they're hungry. They mostly go back to sleep quickly. We basically have three choices: (1) Emily cosleeps and feeds intermittently, as we did with Sam, but for two kids this time, (2) we add a hard-and-fast middle of the night feeding, which would be something like 7pm, 10pm, 2am, and 6am; or (3) we try to stretch them to a six to eight hour fit of sleeping. Right now, Emily sleep feeds around 10 and then Eva usually wakes up once or twice briefly and Eli wakes up once and then she feeds them around 5:30 when dawn starts. All things in time...
