Hi, Erin.....
I'm back! DD is now 8.5 months old, and while we've made some progress, we're still having some issues...she tends to have two bad nights followed by 1-2 good nights. I've tried messing with her routine a bit, but maybe I am missing something? Here's what it's looking like lately:
Awake: 7:15
BF 7:20
Solids 8:30
S 10:15-11:45
BF noon
Solids 1:30
S 3:15-4:45
BF 3:20
Solids 6:00
BT 8:30
Up at 1:30 (fed), 5 (fed), woke at 7:10
(these A times were a bit shorter because we were coming off a bad night)
Up at 7:05
BF 7:10
Solids 8:15
S 9:50-12:00
BF 12:05
BF 1:30(not really any lunch today - another BF)
S 3-3:50 (car)
BF 4:15
Solids 5:45
BT 7:50
Up 11:30-1 (fed at 12:30), up at 2:50-3:40 (fed 3:30), up at 6:45
It's these long NWs that are confusing me again. Some nights, she goes 6-8 hours without eating (she may wake up for a minute or two to cry out, but nothing long) and last night, for instance, she was up less than three hours between feeds. I don't think she's hungry, but I can't seem to settle her without nursing. She is also SORT of resisting her naps lately. She never used to cry at all when I put her down, and now she will fuss anywhere from 30 seconds to 8 or so minutes. She still almost always sleeps at least 1.5 hours, though, so I kind of doubt UT?
Does anything jump out at you? She's always working on things (she started walking around 7.5 months - refuses to crawl), but we really give her a LOT of practice time while she's awake...
Thanks!!
