I took it for granted that the baby w...Hi Courtney!<br />I took it for granted that the baby would have two naps a day and then go right to sleep at night and maybe wake up once or twice a night. HA! It was like that for a few months, but not anymore.<br /><br />Naps are a constant struggle unless I put her in the car seat and drive somewhere... unfortunatly, she wakes up the second the car is turned off.<br /><br />I tried letting her cry it out (when I was sure that she was fed and changed and ready to sleep), but that was just a disaster and didn't feel right... It was hard to look at her sobbing and choose not to do anything about it.<br /><br />Fortunatly, she is playing by herself a little more now, so I can have a little break here and there. Is your baby able to be left alone a bit?<br /><br />it's too bad that we don't live in the same neighborhood. I read an article about two women who hung out together during the days (one day at one woman's house and one day at the other's and so on). They would take care of the babies, clean the house they were in, cook, and hang out during the day. What they cooked would feed both families at their respective homes that night... it sounds nice:)<br /><br />I will pray for you tonight! I hope that your baby has sweet dreams... and sleeps for many hours in a row!<br /><br />EmmaMamaBirdEmmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953172914077823820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-70357791618445843012007-01-25T23:30:00.000-05:002007-01-25T23:30:00.000-05:00It sounds like I got more done that I really did.....It sounds like I got more done that I really did... most things took only a few minutes:)MamaBirdEmmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953172914077823820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-53290052302041372762007-01-25T13:54:00.000-05:002007-01-25T13:54:00.000-05:00Emma, I hear you on the sleep issues.

I didn't have any trouble transitioning the baby to his own bed (he grew out of our bed which is only a full-size and the co-sleeper), but he CANNOT fall asleep on his own. He did for a few days at nap time about a month ago, but just can't otherwise. It's so frustrating. I don't mind nursing him down (multiple times) at night, but for naps it would be nice to have things a little simpler. He also has a habit at night of falling asleep for 30-45 minutes and then we have to do the routine all over again before he's "down" for the night AKA 3-4 hours. Oh, and here's the latest this week: NO NAPS! He only napped about 1 hour yesterday and so far about 20 minutes today in the Ergo while I was making bread. AGHH!!! Praying for you; pray for me!Courtneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06397886444398204729noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6212550248931823866.post-57930194146359884922007-01-25T10:26:00.000-05:002007-01-25T10:26:00.000-05:00Whew, I'm tired just reading all you got accomplis...Whew, I'm tired just reading all you got accomplished!
