That's why I think my kid was actually a pretty good sleeper even though she didn't sleep through the night, she still slept good 4-6 hour chunks consistently. I think I would have had an easier time with my social life if she took a bottle. She doesn't really. She takes it but only drinks half an ounce and then when I get home she is even more mad and hungry.Advo.cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15021755551988863015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8548279799886745199.post-44413187892762092682013-09-05T13:33:17.677-07:002013-09-05T13:33:17.677-07:00I agree with you on many points, but not the last ...I agree with you on many points, but not the last one. Don't get me wrong, we did adjust our schedules to fit the baby, but I fed him wherever we were if the time came for his feeding and we were not home. Our bedtime has always been 7:30 p.m. since pretty much the time I can remember (yes the first few weeks were a blur). When we needed to go out I pumped and had a bottle ready (although I did prefer to put him to bed myself), we actually took him with us and put him for his night sleep at our friends' houses many time (until about 6 months old).<br />What I totally agree with is the attitude - accept that you are not going to sleep at night. I was up every 2 hours every night until after he turned 10 months, and that was not for feeding. We have a nice bedtime routine and he has never had problems falling asleep, but he wouldn't stay asleep, and not even for naps. Well, now he sleeps from 8 p.m. to about 6-6:30 a.m. Again, I know he is going to be waking up early and I accept that fact as a way of life (but I do hope for a miracle now and then, and we did have a rare instance of waking up close to 8 a.m.)<br />And I am with you on sleep training. Our pediatrician told us to do crying out, but I couldn't do it, I used a different method which I adjusted to suit my baby.<br />Anyways, sorry for the long comment (I tried to keep it short but I can talk about sleep for hours). I hope I will not get banned from your site :)<br />Rosachkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13009081846548536990noreply@blogger.com
