Hurray! I remember what it was like when my daughter started to settle in and our days were EASY. A weight lifted off my shoulders, and the dread everyday turned into confidence. (and I got some sleep)

Hope things stay positive for you!

Things are going really, really well. Sometimes ds wakes crying but will go straight back off. He's only having about three to three and a half hours during the day. Still no teeth! X

So glad to hear it!  I think it always helps to know that everything passes (and then you will be on to the next crisis!).  Great work and glad to hear you are all doing well!!

Mercifully, that too shall pass. Just jeep bub well hydrated.

You and lo have done a fantastic job. Very well done! Now you know what to do next time sleep problems creep in, and from experience, they will, as they develop and start needing more A time.

Good luck, you're a gr8 mommy!! Your lo is lucky that God chose YOU to bring him into this world and be his mommy! That's significant and even though you will do things you may regret, never lose sight of that.

Hugs

I'm back again! DS is waking in the night again and I have no idea why. He's not having too long during the day, around 3 hours in total. His bedtime is the same but he's has started to wake at around midnight and then about every 90 mins after. He's not fully awake usually but moans and cries. I go in and pat/rub his back and he usually goes back to sleep. He doesn't need his nappy changing, he's not hungry nor does he seem to have wind. Can anyone help please?

We are still not managing them first thing however the rest of the day he's hitting three hours. At least I know there's light t the end of the tunnel and that it happens sometimes. He seems to go longer if I stay with him longer and sush him rather than just settle him and leave him. He isn't waking properly. Thanks for the support. X
