After feeding, it’s nap time. Yes. Baby nappy. Momma nappy too, sweetheart. Oh, baby. I’m just so—yes, sweetheart. Mommas get sleepy too. Yes they do…oh, they sure do, sweetheart. Trust me. Okay, baby girl. You did a good job eating your breakfast. Let’s burp it out and take a nappy, okay?
“Hon?”
Shit. Okay. Good job. Now let’s just lie you down. Go to sleep now, darling girl. I’ll be right in the next room.
“HON!”
No, no, baby. Don’t cry. Aww…sweet girl, don’t…please? It’s just daddy. He’s…well, he forgot you were about to take a nappy. I’ll leave the door cracked…just..like…this…
What is it?
“Oh, shit. You were putting her down.”
Duh.
“Did she–?”
Yeah, but she’ll fall asleep soon enough.
“Is that her? She’s still cry–”
I know. Amanda said it’s hard to let’em cry it out at first, but there’s nothing wrong. Otherwise, we’ll never get any—.
“Okay. Well, I’m sorry I forgot…you were going to put her down as well.”
It’s fine. What did you want?
“Umm…well, I couldn’t find the remote.”
