Maddux gave us a full 12 hours last night for the first time. We've been very pleased with her sleep thus far, but 8-10 hours was more the norm that we'd settled into, which meant I was normally up somewhere between 5-7AM for her first feeding. Today was 8:15: Hallelujah!!! This means she has less feedings each day, which could be a problem. Maddux seems to be smart though, since she upped her feeding time yesterday and today to make up the difference. She's now up to 30-minutes per feeding (go ahead and throw your stones now - I know that is not *long* by nursing mom standards). Now I've successfully jinxed myself for tonight and probably many nights to follow...signing off.

Congrats on the 12 hours! That's the light at the end of the tunnel :)
