Ava slept for 10 1/2 last night. I hope
it's for good and not a one night thing.
We put her to sleep at 8 and she just woke
up at 6:30. I'm so happy.

Woohoo!!! Let's hope it lasts!
Trey didn't start sleeping through the
night till he was almost 14 months. I
almost lost my mind. Lol

Congratulations!
.Logan still isn't sleeping through and
he's nearly a year! He slept through from
2 weeks old til he was about 7 months old
then he started waking again when he was
on proper solids. He still wakes 2-3
times a night for bottles
.Layla gave it up a week before her first
birthday and I was hoping .Logan would be
the same but no such luck cause he relies
too much on formula. I feel like i'm
going insane sometimes cause I don't have
neil around anymore to guide me on what to
do and he's supposed to be switching to
cows milk soon
anyway rant over (sorry)
lets hope it lasts

Woo! Let's hope it lasts! That'll be
great since you're going back to work and
you'll need your sleep.
I'm feeling pretty good too, we've been
putting finn down awake at 10 and I can
hear him making little noises until about
10:30 and then he sleeps until 7-7:30.
It's awesome! Oh, and I just ordered 2 of
those swaddling blankets since he's
getting too long for the receiving ones.
We got the "kiddopotamus", I hope they
work as well as the kind you got.
Is she still sleeping in your room? I
can't get finn to sleep in his own room
yet but that's ok, I like having him in
with us.

She's been sleeping for 6-7 hours for the
last two weeks. That was fine wtih us.
This is way better. If she goes back to
6-7 I won't be disappointed, but I hope
she continutes. We usually put her to
bed around 10:30. Well last night we put
her to bed at 8 because she didn't get to
take a good nap in the evening like she
usually does because we went take family
pictures. Maybe skipping that evening
nap did the trick.

I put both my kids down at 8pm (whether
they like it or not) layla usually falls
to sleep with a bottle of cows milk and
.Logan goes to sleep halfway through
drinking his bottle (i leave him to drink
it himself). I don't go to bed myself til
past midnight usually. It's my free time
to myself! Lol.
Layla sleeps 8pm-8am without waking and
logan sleeps 8pm-8am but wakes up 2-3
times. Usually he falls back to sleep for
an hour at 10am too.
Me and the kids are lazy bones. I don't
know how mothers wake up at 6am or
whatever. I just couldn't do it. I don't
know how i'm going to get them up for
school

Yeah, she's sleeping with us in bed still.
I thought I wanted her in her own bed,
but I really don't. I like her with us.
I would miss her if she'd be in her room.
I would like to get her to sleep in her
bassinet. We could maybe move her crib
in our room. I don't know yet. Her
room is on the other side of the house.
There's the kitchen, the living room, and
a long hall between our rooms. My
husband said it too last night that she'd
be too far away. We figured that we'd
leave her in our room until she wants to
get out or until the next baby's born.
We'll transition them both out when the
new baby's around 3-4 months. I'm so
confused on what to do. We weren't
planning on co-sleeping, but it just felt
like the right thing to do. My husband
works nights once a month for a week at a
time and I like having her with me in bed
so i'm not alone. I don't want to send
mixed messages to her, so I guess it's
best to just keep her with us and see what
she wants when she gets older. I just
feel bad b/c my dad bought her a 500
dollar crib. I need to start putting her
in it for her daytime naps, so I can say
that she used it. She doesn't go to
sleep on her own. When she gets tired,
she cries. We have to wrap her and put
her to sleep. We need to start letting
her soothe herself when she wakes up
shortly after. Sometimes we pick her
back up when she wakes up after being put
down and we put her back to sleep. It'll
be our fault if she doesn't learn soon.

I know it's hard. My mum was the same as
you. She wanted to feel close to my lil
sister and now she's 5 and still in bed
with my mum
It's hard cause I want .Logan to be the
kids room with layla but it's just so much
easier to have them in the same room (or
bed) when they are waking up for bottles.
I couldn't be doing with going to a
different room to tend to them all the
time.
When .Logan sleeps through I will move him
in with .Layla. Until then he will be in
the room with me
