After some very horrific days, I have really been working hard on keeping shelby on a 3 hour EASY. Just want some feedback as to whether what I am doing is ok so far. Shelby is 8 weeks old today
E - 6.00-6.20
A - 6.20-6.45
S - 6.45-9.15 (self settled)
E - 9.15-9.35
A - 9.35-10.20
S - 10.20-11.40 (ssh/pat for 5 mins)
E - 11.40-12.00
A - 12.00-12.50
S - 12.50 - still asleep (self settled, awoke after 15 mins. Rewrapped, self settled)
I am still trying to finish reading BW, but can someone give me some techniques on resettling / extending sleep times. Shelby was having 30 min catnaps and I have been ssh/pat as per book but cannot get her resettled most of the time. (anyone know where I can find it in the books)
Also, how long do you try to resettle before you accept they are not going back to sleep. Last night I was trying for over an hour, yes she did go to sleep but I was exhausted.
Usually Shelby catnaps all day, with the longest sleep being an hour, and wants to be rocked to sleep (our fault I know) so I feel I have made progress today.
