Gemma, please sleep!

I don't know what happened. Last night was weird. I put her to bed a bit later (my own fault) at like 9:30 (she usually goes down slightly earlier). She was falling asleep while nursing so after trying to keep her sucking for as long as I could (probably 25 minutes), I put her down to sleep. She could hardly keep her eyes open as I tried to burp her, but as soon as her head hit the mattress, she cried out. and again. and again. I finally gave up trying and got Jesse to take over. He had the same results, so my mom took over. Then it was back to me. I don't think she actually fell asleep until an hour later. Usually at bedtime I can put her down wide awake and she is happy to sleep. I don't know what that was about last night. 

Then she woke up at 4 something. Again, very unusual. Tried to get her back to sleep, but she wouldn't. Finally after probably 30 minutes or so of fighting with her, I gave in and fed her. Even after I fed her, she wasn't gonna go down easy. Whatever. I was a total zombie and Jesse was more awake and so he took care of her after that until he left for work. 

Whatever is wrong with my baby, I hope it is a one-time thing and passes. We've been spoiled thus far and so maybe she's throwing this in there just to "mix it up". Bah.
