she's been up since 12:30 this afternoon with only two half hour naps since then. it's almost 11 o' clock now. i'm pretty sure she needs a poo but for some reason she won't go. she isn't crying or anything. she just will not sleep!!! i'm taking a break from rocking her in the rocking chair because i feel like my arms are going to fall off from holding her. she's just sitting here in her vibrating chair popping her soother out then pushing it back in. her eyes are all glazed over because she's so tired but she just won't sleep for more than 5 minutes. i don't know what to do with her. i'm so tired. Crying or Very sad

Bella had a day liek that yesterday... she wasn't crusty or anything, really she was all smiles and playful , but you could see it in her eyes how tired she was.
have you tried a bath?
At about 1am last night I did the whole bedtime bath routine thingy with the lotions and I turned the light down really low and just =rubbed the stuff into her arms legs and belly, she was giggly at first but after a while it zonked her out and finally when I started to rock her she fell asleep.
good luck, days like that are hard hun , hopefully they are few and far between!

yeah, the bath thing works like a charm. i gave her one last night and she slept like a log. but she's sleeping now! i put her in her swing so i could go to the bathroom and when i came back she had passed out. now i'm scared to take her out. lol.

There was a couple nights when Kaylee was that age where she slept all night in her swing just because I was exhausted & needed a little rest! The batteries were dead by morning but we both got a good nights sleep!

It's fine to leave her in her swing to sleep at night if you need to.

My daughter did this for awhile. We finally put a fan in her room and now she sleeps really good every night. We faced the fan towards the wall so that it's not blowing on her. Seems the noise helps soothe her. Now, I just wish we could figure out how to get her to sleep for the baby-sitters!!
