Mom and Dad came up this week to look after Noel...it turns out that our babysitter gets every major (and minor) holiday off. We're fortunate that we have them though, because otherwise I don't know what we'd do!
They came up on Sunday afternoon, and we had a few hours to just hang out before it was time for Noel's bedtime. Noel had gotten to a point where she was sleeping pretty solidly...she was sleeping 3 or 4 hours at a time, and once she actually slept 7 hours without waking. I thought things were getting better, but somehow she has regressed! Last night she woke up 3 times between 9 and 12. After spending an hour trying to get her back in her bed, sleeping, I ended up bringing her back to bed with me. She just flails all night long!
I've read a lot about sleep solutions, and I'm not exactly sure what is right, what is wrong, or how I'm supposed to "train" her to sleep through the night. I think the solution is unique to your baby, and I'm just confused at how to "fix" it. I'm just trying to take it one day a time, and remind myself that this is only a phase. Noel's babysitter "Miss Holly" keeps giving her gifts...she has given her two hats, a sleeper, and a stuffed animal so far (and it's only been 2.5 weeks). I had to take some pictures of her...the hat is just tooo cute :)
She's a frontier woman now!
"Hmmm...now how can I get this in my mouth?"
We have sleep issues, too! I guess one day we'll figure this out!! :)
ReplyDeleteWe're there on sleep issues too. Moving her down the hall seems to have helped some, but every decent night is followed by at least one of horrible sleep!
