Hi Ladies!

I had to share my excitement.  My ds has had problems sleeping from day one.  We are always dealing with short naps, several wakings at night and OT.  Just a few nights ago he woke over 12 times and yesterday's naps were a nightmare.  I put DS to bed last night and he started to wake often.  After the fifth time in 2 hours going in to help him back to sleep, I decided to try the humidifier.  He sounded a bit stuffy and I remember reading another mom's suggestion about using a humidifier.  Well, I gave him his 10:30 DF and he slept until 4:30!, cried out, so I started making a bottle but then he fell back to sleep until 7:15! When I went in to check on him, he was laying in his crib wide awake with the humidifier buzzing in the background!  Woohoo!  Don't know if this was a fluke.  Maybe he was just so tired, but you bet that humidifier will be running again tonight!  Give it a try.  It might be the miracle worker for you too!  I also ordered a sound machine for x-mas.  Good Luck!

That's great!  I also used to use a humidifier for heating as well as white noise  :-*
