We have been working with Rosie to help her sleep on her own for longer stretches at night. We have a simple little routine each night that begins between 7:30-8:30.
Here's the drill:
1) Wash Up
2) Change the diaper and into PJ's
3) Nurse with Mommy
4) Read/sing/rock with Daddy (Mommy heads out of the room)
5) Daddy lays Rosie down in the crib
Step 6 of the routine usually includes anywhere between one hour to 15 minutes of Rosie hollering.
However, tonight we hit a milestone. Daddy laid her down in the crib Rosie looked up at him and fell right asleep. No hollering, no whimpering, no crying...just sleep.
A big shout out to Rosie for getting on the sleep train!
Congrats to Rosie for a good night's sleep! When she's done she should come over here and re-train me:-P Also, I would like to say that I've been LOVIN' the daily picture! Please could September be that way toooooo???:)
ReplyDeleteNadia, you are definitely in the running for Rosa Fan #1! though it is stiff competition :) I think we all need some sleep training. Maybe we should do a sleep retreat? In California?!!! I've been having fun with the daily snapshots so will try to keep it going...especially if it's by special request! Love you!
