Maybe this is getting better!

We are doing so much better. We definitely should have done this months ago.

Night #4: (Daddy's account)

830-Daddy gave her a bottle and put her in bed asleep.

930-1130-Up 5 times. Daddy just gave her the passy and patted her back.

Daddy says she slept all night after that (or Daddy slept through it but they both survived).

Night #5:

7:30-Mommy gives her a bottle and lays her in bed still awake. She plays for about 30 minutes and fusses. I go up, put her passy in and lay her down. I leave about 15 minutes later (I just sat there and watched). We hear her moving around for about 10 more minutes but she puts herself to sleep. MUCH easier than previous nights.

She woke up 3 times throughout the night. Passy back in and asleep. ANYBODY have any ideas how to stop the habit of us putting the passy back in 3-4 times a night?

Tonight we are already down for the night (7:45). We'll see if maybe she will stay down. This is getting easier by the night and I feel a lot better than I felt this time last week.

Give her 2 or 3 binkies when you put her down at night. She KNOWS how to put them back IN, maybe she just can't find it when it falls out? We all slept peacefully once Laura learned to put it back in herself, and she usually went to sleep with one in her mouth, and one in each hand. Good luck, keep it up!
