Baby Girl is learning how to sleep like a big girl now and it’s going ok so far. She goes to bed around 8 and wakes up around 9:30 screaming. I’m not sure why but it’s pretty consistent. Then I pick her up and put her on my lap while I watch TV and then boom. She’s back asleep. It’s been a while since she’s been able to fall asleep in my arms so easily so I’m enjoying it right now. 😉 It’s tempting to hold her all night but after about 2-3 minutes, I put her back to bed. She’ll usually sleep most of the night with occasional wimpers but if she has G-raffe handy, she’s fine. Her bed is in the livingroom now so when she sometimes wakes up around 3 am and cries (usually standing up), we wait it out and let her cry. Sometimes it lasts 10 minutes. The other night it lasted 30. Fortunately, if we’re not in view, she settles down on her own and goes back to sleep. No more nursing. No more help from Mom and Dad. She even sleeps on her tummy on her own now. What a big girl.
Here she is taking her morning nap before I left work this morning. One minute she was playing and then another minute I found her like this. Funny girl.
