the magic of mylanta

after weeks and weeks of bad sleep, i followed our pediatrician's suggestion and gave paige some mylanta last night (along with her usual dose of zantac) and scored 7 straight hours of sleep! that is, paige slept for 7 straight hours. i, of course, could not fall asleep to save my life. i have no problem diving into deep, drooling sleep when i'm sitting awkwardly upright in the rocking chair nursing paige at 2am, but lay me down on my brand-new dream mattress with bazillion-thread count sheets and amazing pillows and i'm at a loss. sigh.
