Holy hell, lady. That is bad! I was in a similar position 2 years ago when I was working 110 hrs a week, but then I only had to deal with work and I could roughly tell when I'd get to sleep next. It must be 10 times harder having your sleep constantly interrupted or put off!
From my experience, I remember alternating between feeling completely numb and extremely emotional. The shakes and the physical weakness are the worst -- then you think - my god! I really could die from this!
I'm glad you finally got 5 hours. Hopefully that's an indicator of things to come!
Oh man, you had it bad. What is it with these babies and their stupid teeth??!! And why are ours "teething" forever? I had to laugh though, as usual, at your posts! I had visions of you breastfeeding Zadie in the drinks break at the cricket, or of Joel holding her to your boob while you steno'd away... I have no idea at all how you worked through that. Thanks for sharing that. I will continue to monitor my symptoms, but I reckon I am well on the way to clinical fatigue too. :( Hope Zadie sorts it out once she hits the terrible twos. ;)
