It has been quite a long time since we have seen one another!
Finally. We put Dalia to sleep at 10 pm and she didn't wake up until 8 am. Perhaps it was by chance or maybe it is a new trend (can you imagine!) but we are two happy parents. Steve thinks this is our first night of sleep in 8 months, but I know it is his first night of sleep in 8 months. It is my first night of uninterrupted sleep in more like 10 months (lets not forget how many times uber prego ladies wake up throughout the night).
A mommy friend of mine has a little one who slept through the night at 2 1/2 months--she has been getting this the whole time?!
I am very curious to see what happens tonight. All I know is H and I spent the morning making a check-list of things we "must do again tonight" just in case those things helped her sleep through the night.
Some things that we did:
1. kept the air conditioning on so it didn't get hot in her room
2. used the cotton wood baby insert inside her prefold and then lined that with a hemp doubler inside of her wool cover
3. stuffed her with pruny oatmeal and other foods
4. nursed her a lot
Yay!!! Sleep is awesome!
