Romanticizing the Night Shift
Sleepless nights? Sign me up!
Those first two weeks home with Onyx were rough. My hormones were crashing, and every evening, as soon as it was time to go to bed, I knew I wasn’t going to sleep. I’d be waking up every couple of hours to feed, swaddle, change diapers, and cry. It felt like an endless cycle, and I hated it.
But one night, as I sat there in the dark, I had a thought: what if I stopped fighting the night shift? What if, instead of dreading it, I leaned into it? What if I made it something special, something I could actually enjoy? And that’s exactly what I did. I decided to romanticize the night shift, and it completely changed my experience.
If you’re a new parent struggling with the night shift, this episode is for you. I am sharing all of my nighttime secrets. This may sound crazy, but they will have you loving the newborn stage. Yep, those 3am wake-ups will have you loving life.
