Sleepless in Brooklyn

Critter gets up in the middle of the night to nurse. He usually gets up at 5am, chows on me and then goes back to sleep. Sometimes, he'll awake at 3am for the boob.

Regardless of what time he wakes up at night, I can't go back to sleep! It's been happening for about a month now. I can't fall back asleep. I stay awake for 2 hours, I go to the bathroom, get a drink of water, crawl back into bed, stare at the ceiling, look at the shadows in the room, think about life, family, friends, sometimes I cry; Okay, a lot of times I cry, I go the the bathroom again, drink more water, crawl back into bed and finally about 2, 2-1/2 hours later, I fall back asleep. Yep, just to wake up in about an hour, groggy and tired.

I don't take sleeping pills and don't want to. I don't know what to do. How do I cure my sleepless nights?

I want to sleep dammit, and have pleasant dreams.
