Hello again!
I'm here. LO got alot sicker with a high fever 103/104 after we last wrote. I stuck it out with consistent responses until the high fever and that's what broke me.
I got back on track after 3 nights of being off -track due to the fever plus her fever broke that day. She had trouble but has been getting back on track too, aside from the night wakings still. Might be more teething as usual.
Here's where we are. Her nap schedule got off track a bit while sick.
Tuesday (DC)
WU 730
N 1120-12
n 130-215
BT 715 (went smoothly, I was amazed after 5 hr A time)
EW 6am!! I tried to get her up since she slept 11 hours straight, but fell asleep while I was feeding her and I didn't stop it.
Wednesday
WU 730
N 11-130 (not expecting this, probably making up for some sleep)
N 5-530
BT 9 (DS was up and interrupted routine, LO was probably UT but then had a really hard time when she saw DS enter the room)
EW 4am, screaming, difficulty soothing herself for 1 hour
I walked out a few times to see if that helped. She went to sleep with my hand the last time I went back in.
Help! Have to run at work now but I think that's enough to give you an idea of where we are.. I"ve been waiting to start putting my hand on her back instead as you suggested until she is not sick anymore
