DD was up every 2 hours last night and I am spent. The doctor said she could stay in the swing until 4 months which gives me 5 more weeks of decent sleep (in the swing she sleeps from 9-6). We also cannot do sleep training just yet b/c she does not weigh enough. I know there are girls on the board who exist on less than 2 hrs. of sleep every day but I cannot do it. I feel like the walking dead! I cannot be this tired when I go back to work next week - my kids will tear me apart! I do have a plan. I will start decreasing the speed on the swing gradually until she is sleeping in a still swing. Then we will move to the papasan in the crib and finally the crib. Ugh...I know I am just delaying the inevitable but maybe my MIL and daycare could start breaking her into the crib. This is terrible - I am a behaviorist (professionally) for goodness sake!
Re: Giving up on the crib - for now.
I am sorry it isn't working easily for you. Your plan sounds like a good one, good luck. I am sure daycare is really going to help.
