Parenting after a Loss

What do I do??

I feel like I have a newborn again!! We just started putting Kate in her crib last weekend. I know I know, I waited forever! She did well the first night and ever since she is up at 12:30am, 1:30am and by 3am she is screaming and so I feed her...change her and put her back down then shes up at 7am. This is so not like her. I dont want to get into the 3am feeding because she was sleeping through the night in her moses basket. I need some help here girls. I dont know if she is having a growth spurt or if she is cold? Grrr. Any suggestions would be appreciated!!!! Hugs!

Re: What do I do??

  • have you tried putting her in the moses basket in her crib?  We did this with DS for a while to help transition, granted he was a bit younger :)

    And the other thing to try is to not feed her, have DH go in there and rock her etc. whatever.  Hope something works soon!

  • Teething? I had no clue Aiden was cutting teeth. He was a little cranky, then bam we found teeth the next morning.

    Also, it may be controversial, but Aiden has to have his favorite blanket when he sleeps.

  • She might not be hungry but waking up in a new place and freaking out a bit. Eating could be calming her. Dylan did the same thing when we transitioned to his crib. We fed him a few times and then stopped and just started comforting him in the middle of the night and then putting him back in his crib. After like 3 nights he was STTN in his crib. So just be consistent with her.  If you think she may be cold, put a blanket on her lower 1/2 of her body or put her in a sleep sack or warmer pjs.
