But, now, they sleep wonderfully at night and wake up happy in the morning. It is glorious for us and, more importantly, for them! <br /><br />So glad to hear your little one is sleeping at night. Please let us all know the secret if/when you figure out the trick for napping. One of mine does great, the other is addicted to the swing...and although I'm sure I'm ruining him for life, I need a little more recovery time before more tears at naptime. :)<br /><br />Thank you for sharing...your posts always help me feel like a more confident and capable mother as we've had many similar experiences.

And to your first point...Oh how I love your posts. And to your first point, about writing a sleep book to become a millionaire, I have also come to the conclusion that I can write a "Cure All Baby Book" and to each chapter write "But every baby is different, do what works for your baby" and become a millionaire. What? Seriously? It's like I just spent X amount of money on all these books so I expect a step-by-step method to go by. Not just a "oh, well, every baby is different, do what works for you!"Tiffanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06406591702871726587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082238126439604111.post-28069997999809481062011-03-31T05:56:10.039-07:002011-03-31T05:56:10.039-07:00I've tried the cry it out with the twins and i...I've tried the cry it out with the twins and it works at first. but then within an hour one of them is up, wakes the other one up and it's chaos. I usually end up picking one or both of them up and rocking them back to sleep. Maybe I need to just suck it up and be consistent for a few nights.

Our foster child (9 months) had a regular-ish sleeping pattern, and then got a nasty ear infection so I have been sorely reminded of what it's like to be awake every two hours, and wake up feeling worse than when you went to bed.<br /><br />It sucks, in short.♥ cheryl elisabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08373188228270139806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082238126439604111.post-4091454466654341962011-03-30T18:16:34.487-07:002011-03-30T18:16:34.487-07:00The ghost of a thousand judgy parents.

I find it really helpful to read how other people handle the sleeplessness. I know our babies are all different and what works for some won't work for others, blah, blah, blah, but it's reassuring to know I'm not the only one, and that these methods may actually work. I sincerely hope that she continues to sleep peacefully for you.finchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517411348405651768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082238126439604111.post-91255125410367459412011-03-30T14:46:57.278-07:002011-03-30T14:46:57.278-07:00I love this for so many reasons.

I remember one desperate night that I was awake with my sleepless diva- I thought about ordering a sleep book online to be shipped next day, but then realized that I would never have time to read it... I am so glad things are better for you. It makes the world a happier place!Amberhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03777400850337711004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9082238126439604111.post-55401630308423109112011-03-30T10:39:29.639-07:002011-03-30T10:39:29.639-07:00No kidding!!

Give me 10 pages, lots of bullet points and call it a day. <br /><br />And honestly, I think you did right. Yes, it is hard to hear your child cry, but they also need to learn to self-soothe and figure out how to fall asleep on their own too. You did a great job Mom!Piehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07331859341593997811noreply@blogger.com
