Our Archer is eleven weeks old today. I find this whole being a mum thing both easy and challenging, exciting and terrifying, exhausting and rewarding.
Now that he's older and a little more settled I get roughly four hours sleep a night, broken up into sporadic naps that shuffle from late night to midmorning.
This is how I always imagined it would be. I've since learnt that a lot of people get it easier than this. I'm also aware that some people get it harder.
I feel lucky - I've never been someone that's desired large amounts of sleep, and I function pretty well without it. But there were days long ago that I used to thrive on it... and they're be days yet to come when I will again.
