Hello Folks!
Well, it's been a week and 2 days since we started the "Sleep Sense" program. I have to say that some nights it seems to be going great and others, not so much. It's funny how much I love the program on the "on" nights and how confused I am on the "off" nights. I also checked out a book at the library called "The No Cry Sleep Solution". I thought sleep sense was gentle, but this other book is soooo gentle. It's so confusing to know what to do in the middle of the night when both of us are sooo tired.
Kate seemed so hungry last night. One time I held her and she still cried (which hardly happens), so I knew she must be hungry. She was almost ravenous when I fed her! She woke up only 2 hours later, still hungry. Then 2 hours later, she woke up but wasn't hungry. She was AWAKE! It was 4:30 am! ahhaah I did the math though, and from start to finish, it had been 10 hours. So tonight, I waited to put her down until 7 pm. We did her cute little routine. She was falling asleep while I fed her. I kept blowing on her face and sniffing my nose to wake her up (she always jumps when I sniff my nose! I found it's the best way to wake her up!) haha :) So anyway, I woke her up and burped her and put her down in her crib and she rubbed her eyes and went right to sleep.
I'm always so hopeful at this point of the evening. 11pm and 4am are the tricky times. Hopefully tonight will be a good night for Kate.
