At her age, I'd probably opt for pushing it back.  I'd think she could handle the longer stretches -- though that's just my opinion without actually being there.  :)

I'd push it back too. It seems like NWs earlier in the night are easier to resettle, so I always had more determination to do it then and feed later.

Glad to hear it's going well! :)

I think you girls are right.  Now let's see if I actually try and resettle without feeding in the middle of the night when I'm all groggy!  :P

yep agree with all the above, when I first started I pushed it to 2am or there abouts. Good luck. So know what you mean about MON grogginess, I write it down otherwise I have no chance of remembering.  :P

Good luck!

Woot!  3 NWings but only 1 NF.  :)  Also, not a peep before 11pm which is rare, she has been waking or at least crying out before that point for ages.  She settled fairly easily at 11pm and 1:15 am, fed at 3am, then was up and chatty at 6:25.  I hope this means she is starting to get better at settling herself and will start sleeping longer stretches more consistently.

I'm sure you all love the frequent updates.  :P

Thanks for the support!  A couple more updates for you.  Friday night I only had to get up once to feed her at 2:30.  :)  I didn't have to go in any other times!  She woke a few times but settled herself.  Last night I did have to go in at 10 and 1 and help her settle, but both times it was quick, then she didn't wake for a feed until 4:45!  That's almost a full night without a feed, so she is definitely getting using to not having one.  Who knows how long she'll continue to wake, but I feel much better knowing I can settle her easily without a feed now.  I do suspect those teeth are starting to cause trouble, yesterday she busted her pm nap (which is very rare) and she woke quite frequently before 1am and was fairly upset.  I hope the teeth don't take too long, and don't undo too much of my work!
