After our appointments the last couple weeks that determined Bennett has a bit of a breathing problem from some mouth and tongue issues, the Dr. opted for a fairly routine sleep study to make sure this wasnt leading to sleep apnea or any other sleeping problems.
We left the shower yesterday feeling pretty good about the night ahead relaxing, snuggling baby and watching some TV while they monitored our little guys sleep habits.... WAY easier said than done...
Turns out they "monitor" him by placing metal probs all over his body and sticking it there with a very thick sticky vaseline substance.... Needless to say this was not Bennetts favorite process. They topped it all off by wrapping his probed head with a big gauze helmet in an attempt to make it more comfortable, (that seemed to be unsuccessful)
I am pretty sure we may need some Goo-Gone to get it out of his hair because he still looks like he has a little Jerry Curl on his head after another bath at home this morning, and nearly ripping out the minimal amount of hair he does have.
So after the long process of getting him all hooked up the very painful longer process of getting him to sleep with all the junk on began... I think Bennett thought the experience was almost as painful as it was for Mom and Dad.
Good news is he is sleeping very soundly all cuddled up in his bassinett right now and is back to being one happy little baby. :)

I don't think I would be able to sleep if I had all the stuff on me! Glad Bennett is back home and sleeping well.
