Eloise, our 7-month old, is still going through her 4-month sleep regression.
Which means she’s not sleeping through the night.
Which means mum and dad aren’t either.
This is a challenge we know will end but we don’t know when (just like looking for a new job).
For me at least, I find it very helpful during challenges like these to know that I am one day closer to the finish line.
I don’t know where that finish line is.
But I know that it’s fixed somewhere in the future.
So all I must do to reach it is to keep doing what I’m doing right now.
And with each day, each step, I am closer now than I was before.
