Yay great news Jemma!!!!  Am I the only one NOT putting a sippy in DS's cot?!  Ooh I feel mean!  Always been too worried it would end up spilt all over the bedsheets.

It happened to us the second night we did it because I put a normal (plastic) glass... but with the sippy, we've never had a problem. Here it is pretty hot and he's waking also twice or more per night to drink. Waking up, and get up to take the water and give it to him would be too tiring for me! (I often ask myself how I could deal with another baby... ::) )

She actually asks for milk which she likes to drink heated up lol. I don't mind though as it's not every night. I left her bottle in her cot with her a few months ago after OHs sister mentioned that she does with her 2 year old but her sheets we're soaked come the morning.

I'm not sure if it's because she's sleeping better & sleep helps sleep (I guess i've never actually believed this because she's never slept well lol). But she seemed quite tired yesterday and fell asleep after 5hr 40mins at bedtime and this morning was asking to go to bed before her dinner and i ended up putting her down at 12.20pm instead of 1.00pm (she was asleep for 12.30pm and slept 1.5hr). as she was moaning to go up. And she was asleep after 5.5hr A tonight.  x

Hiya Jemma,

Believe me she is on a roll, all the signs are there  :D Whenever Sam has been over tired and he starts to CU he seems sleepier than ever and A times shorten and sleep lengthens. I am so so happy for her and you that she is doing better, especially with the whole BGB transition just a few days ago. She's a little star!

^^^this^^^

its very definitely true - sleep begets sleep.  We're having a sleepy phase here too atm - DS is doing around 2-2.5hr nap & ~11hrs at night which we haven't had for months! I swear its because I've let him nap for longer lately. Enjoy!xx

We have actually just come out from a sleepy phase :( it's a pity, because it was very nice... But we are having a lot of cognitive growth, so I guess it is what it has to be. So tricky, isn't it?

Sophie's still sleeping great, last night she stopped at my mums and i was a little worried that she might mess about at bedtime with my mum being in the room with her but she settled within 15mins and slept 8.15pm - 6.00am (A bit of a short night but still not bad). The night before last we only had 1 wake up for a drink about 3.00am, i did hear 2 little cry/shout outs between 2.30-3.00am but she had no blankets on when i went in at 3.00am so she was maybe cold too.

I'm really pleased with her sleeping and i really don't mind the 1 wake up lol. :D x

Hmmm, so after either sleeping through and doing a full 11-12hr stretch or waking just the once at around 2.30-3.00am for the past 7 nights we had 4 wake ups last night. I'm thinking she was maybe UT? as she sttn the night before (mon night) a full 11hr 45mins and woke from her nap after 1.5hr and was then asleep for 5.5hr before bed.

She woke up crying and i had to go in and re-settle her each time, she didn't ask for milk or seemed hot and I'm not 100% if she's teething as she doesn't have any teething signs so i don't think it's that.

She was asleep for 7.35pm woke after 40mins, 3hr 40, 2hr 30, 40mins and then 4hr 20mins. was up for the day at 7.25am.

She's still doing 5.5hr before nap, 1.5-2hr (mostly 2hr) nap and then bed after 5.5hr.

--

I'm not expecting her to sttn every night as i know even us as adults have the odd bad night, but just wondering if she's maybe going to get the odd UT night and it to cause a few wake ups? x

Hiya Jemma,

Honestly Hun, I think you do get good and bad nights even with a routine that suits. There is teething and developmental issues etc  that cause NW too obviously.

What does your gut tell you  ??? Does she still seem happy enough  ???
