tough love
So- after lots of consideration and many sleepless nights we decided to go the cry to sleep route w/ landon AGAIN. If you all might remember we did this once before and that happend to be the week landon started to pull to standing. The second night we did it he kept standing up and falling and banging his head (his balance wasn't great at that time) soooo we stopped in fear he might really hurt himself. That led to the rocking to sleep again and bringing him to bed w/ me in the middle of the night. So- we are doing it again and last night was the first night.
Bedtime 7:15, cried til 7:40 and slept til 12:00. I went in at night reassured him and layed him back down and he went back to sleep and then he woke up at 5:15 had a bottle and then slept til 7am. (he usually still has a bottle anywhere from 5-6:45, hopefully we can cut that out soon) It was the first night he slept in his crib from start to finish. NINE months old and the first time..can you believe it. So all in all, i'm pretty proud of the night, and i got some sleep. We'll see how tonite goes....

I feel your pain (and JOY!)... Belle was 9 months before she slept through the night regularly at all!
I don't know how either you or Keri manage to do it! I would go crazy if Ella didn't sleep. Luckily we've only had 2 sleepless nights and both times I kept saying that I dont know how you or Keri can do it - so much respect for that!!
