Hello! LO is 12 weeks old on 3 hour easy. He tends to stir in his sleep and will wake himself up at 10/20 minute jolts and the 45 min cycle end. If we do HTTJ and W2S, he almost always takes a good 1.5+hr nap. How long do I continue using HTTJ and W2S? How to wean without messing up his naps?
He goes to sleep in his crib swaddled with a paci. The paci is new (we used to rock and fall asleep in arms but the paci gets him to fall asleep on his own, so we're using it now), and we're still having to hold the paci for him until he falls asleep (then lets go and we leave it out). He is learning how to keep the paci in better. But, if it falls out, and we have to put it back in, it takes him longer to fall asleep b/c he wants it. I'm all for him having his thumb, but he doesn't have the aim yet.
So if he wakes from jolts or cycle end, I don't think he has the soothing yet to put himself back to sleep (maybe the paci would, but I don't want the habit of replugging if I can avoid it; I'd rather do the other 2 b/c he's not aware we're helping, right?).
