I went to Babies-R-Us and bought two different types of bedrails to try out. All of my pups sleep on the bed with me and I'm always terrified of one of them falling off. This terrific suggestion may be just what I need to help keep them all a little safer.
Alexander really, really scared me last night.
I normally go home straight after work, but I needed to run several errands and it was late when I got home last night. I can't bear to think about it all now, so I'll spare the long, rambling story. After a couple of hours, I got Alexander calmed down and he actually snuggled in bed with me for a long time before we fell asleep.
I'm not certain what happened with him, but I really think he was afraid of the dark! Every time I'd turn the lights off to go to bed he'd start crying and panting. So we wound up sleeping with the bedroom lights on last night.
I'm hoping that this only happened because he was expecting momma to be home and I wasn't there. But if it keeps up, I'll just buy us a nitelight and see if that's enough comfort for him.
Thank you all for your continued prayers! I'm so anxious for tomorrow's appointment to get here, I don't know how I'll sleep tonight.
