I started my Spirited DD on BW when she was 7 wks old and saw extreme improvement almost immediately. With shh/pat, Naps improved. She no longer spent 7-11pm screaming, and she started going to bed at 7pm instead of 11pm/12 am...only thing was, she was NW every 2 hrs. but that stopped at 10 wks and she went back to sleeping in 4/5 hr. sometimes 6/7 hr. stretches. By then she also had learned to put her self to sleep. I thought I was in Heaven.....BUT NOW! she's back to NW every 2 hrs. For the past week and a half (with the exception of yesterday) naps have been 30-45 min. and last night she screamed from 7:30-11:30pm, slept 'til 2:30, then was back up at 4:30 and every hr. after! So far today she hasn't really slept much either and it's kind of hard for me recall when when/how long she did b/c I feel like a zombie. I've learned that shh/pat doesn't work to calm her anymore and PU/PD is overstimulating for her. Wake2Sleep has yet to extend a nap. and I've tried every variation (even my own) of these methods that I can think of. Even AP (nursing to sleep, swing) doesn't work like it used to. I haven't tried her stroller yet but I'm thinking about it. She's has a very strong sucking reflex but I can only see a paci worsening things. I'm at breaking point...PLEASE HELP!
Her schedule (is supposed to be):
7 wk/feed
8:30 S
10 feed
11:30 S
1 feed
2:30 S
4 feed
5:30 nap
6 feed/bath
7 feed/bed
