Surviving the 3 AM Meltdown?

A Mother’s Gentle Guide to the 4-Month Sleep Regression Hello dear Mama!  I hope you are all well. It was around 3:00 am. Everyone was sleeping except my little son. I sat in silence. I looked from my son to everyone else, watching them sleep peacefully. I kept looking at the time again and again and it seemed as if the clock had stopped. Time was not passing. And my son was not even getting sleepy. He was watching with wide eyes. And I was sitting with my eyes open forcibly. You know well that when a child is awake, how can a mother get sleepy. When I fed him milk, I would pray at the same time that he would sleep now. But no, he was not going to get sleepy and I woke up feeling bad. I started blaming myself that all the mothers in the world are sleeping peacefully and am I a failed mother? If you are reading this at 3:00 am with sleep in your eyes, then I want you to breathe a sigh of relief and not blame yourself. You are not failing. You are a great mother, and your baby loves...
