Hi all!
Just a boring Sunday afternoon here - Caeden is napping at the moment and I don't feel like doing anything, although there is plenty that needs done! And DH is working for a friend on his office. It's coudy and rainy this afternoon. What I would really like is a nap, but I know if I do then Caeden will only sleep for 45 minutes and I won't get enough of a nap, for me 20 minutes is worse then no nap. Besides - there are 3 loads of laundry on the bed......
On a good note - Caeden slept a 5 1/2 hour strech last night
and then he did a 3 hour strech! Last 3 nights he has only been up 2 times a night! Oh yeah! I am so glad he is getting back into a routine.
Anyone else's LO seem to be an early riser? Caeden seems to wake for the day by 6:30, sometimes closer to 6. Then he wants another nap within a hour and a half. Is this normal or should I be trying to put him back down?
The last week or so I haven't cause DH will get up with him and play with him and let me sleep for another hour or maybe a little more! So - I have been letting him stay up and then nap when I get up. What do you all think?
Seaflower - I would say - let her sleep as long as she can, don't wake to feed. If she wakes and it has been 4 or more hours then feed her, but otherwise let her sleep. That is what I have been doing with Caeden anyway.
Adria - Could Jency be teething? They can sometimes work on teeth for weeks before they actually come thru. Is it fussy all the time or does it come and go? Sometimes teething will cause more pain when they feed too.
Are you breastfeeding? If gas is the issue - have you tried cutting anything out of your diet?
Claire - how are you doing? Haven't seen a post from you in awhile!
