My son is almost 13 months so he is not a NB so probably won't sway as much. But he still gets up 2,3 times a night. So. We went to bed at 1. Up twice with him then up at 7. So not much sleep. I wanted to wait to try until he was at least a year if he decides to wean when I become a barf machine.Quote:

When I got DD, I was up with my 3 1/2 year old and my almost 2 year old every night at least once and usually more. The interrupted sleep sways on its own. Then in addition to that, a quick turnaround between kiddos can ALSO sway because your condition will be lower if you haven't fully recovered from pg yet.Quote:

So you can get boys or girls as Irish twins - the catch is that declining maternal condition tends to sway pink but also inhibits fertility, so women who are able to conceive Irish twins may be more "set" to blue to begin with and that's the only reason they're ABLE to conceive.
Hard concept to explain, let me know if it's unclear.
