We have regressed. This past week has been really crazy for us and there have been some major changes made in our household. I'm still keeping her on the same schedule but she is fighting sleep again. I lay her in her bed at 8 and she tries to sit up, jabber, and make all kinds of noises to not fall asleep. Tonight it took 40 minutes for her to fall asleep and she has been waking up a lot more during the night. The only thing that gets her back to sleep is nursing. I don't know what to do, and I have had a migraine for 3 days now.

Our house has had a cold and has been chaos too but I couldn't read and not post. And a 3 day migraine too? That's just too much! Big ((HUGS)). OK, are you on the same EASY that was working so well before? If so and since it was so recently changed up I would go with it and just try to muddle through. THese LO's pick up so much on changes and emotional stuff too that she is likely just feeling that and it is coming out in sleep. Try to be as consistent as you can and still survive the madness! Hang in there!

Hugs, if you're feeling poorly, do whatever you need to get through and when you're well again you'll be stronger to tackle whatever you need.

Sending "go away migraine" vibes and sleepy baby vibes. xxxx

Hi ladies, sorry to take so long in response. I've got so much on my plate right now. My husband and I are going through a separation. His illness has caused him to have a lapse in judgment and there was some illegal behavior going on and I definitely couldn't stand the thought of losing my baby so I left. M has been feeling the emotional side of it and it has definitely messed her sleep up. She fell asleep nursing tonight and she wakes up and, seriously, wanted to nurse all night last night. My body can't produce that much, and with the stress that I am under it not good quality for her. So I'm kind of lost as to how to get her back on routine.

Oh hun...I cannot begin to imagine what you are going through. Massive gentle ((HUGS)). As I am sure you know your LO is bound to be picking up on all this chaos and I would just encourage you to do whatever you need to do to get through. We will be here when you are at a point to reintroduce more independent sleep. Let us know if we can help, sending strength to get through all of this.
