Professional

Carter is officially a sleep study professional.  He was such a champ!  When we arrived to our room for the night, he freaked out!  We are talking kicking, screaming, and demanding to go Bye Bye.  But, I sat him down  and read him a good book, which seemed to help.  As soon as the ladies came in to start hooking him up, he freaked out again.   He was crying, and screaming at the top of his lungs, but he did not move.  About half way though it all, he gave up and stopped crying, but because it took so much energy to fight for so long, he was exhausted.  And, he preceded to fall asleep sitting up while the girls were taping him up.  Yeah, a true miracle, and it only gets better.  As soon as they were done, I put him down in the bed and he told me to go lay down on my bed.  Yeah, what a difference from last year when he demanded to hold my hand all night long. 
At about 10:30, Carter feel asleep all on his own.  We had to wake him up to put on his CPAP at 12:30, and then he slept until they woke us up for good at 5:30.  It was amazing, and I am so proud of my little man.  We should have the results back in a few weeks, but right now I can tell you that he does sleep a lot better with the CPAP on.  Without the CPAP he is a very noisy sleeper, but he is not having as many episodes as last year.  So, maybe some good news is in our future.  Good job Carter, Mommy is so proud of you!!!!


All done, but they poked my finger Mommy!!!

Lets go home!!!
