ok jen...how did riley do??

this was us...

FRIDAY - wide awake and crying by 3:30am....cried for about 30 minutes (with me not alone)....gave her 4 oz (instead of her usual 6oz) after her non stop crying while rocking her to bed. after her 4 oz she hugged me with BOTH arms...no lie, like if saying "thank you mommy i needed that"...that broke my heart, went straight to bed after

SATURDAY - wide awake and crying by 3am....repeated friday's routine and again with 4 oz instead of 6 oz

SUNDAY - i heard her crying at 4am....i waited 8 minutes (which is the equivalent of 1 hr in mommyhood)....i didnt want to do CIO i just wanted her to calm down a bit before i walked into her room, i didnt want to go grab her when she was non stop wailing. i picked her up after 8 minutes....rocked her to bed....NO BOTTLE....she fell back asleep after 30-40 minutes...

so i accomplished the no bottle yesterday (i guess by giving her less on friday and saturday)...we'll see how it goes tonight.

    sounds like you are on the right track! I know it is SO hard to do, but it'll be worth it when she stops waking up at all!

    CIO IS SO HARD!!!!!!!!! Sounds like you guys did pretty good though!

    Here's how our weekend went:

    Friday Night-Up at 3am, let her cry for 15 minutes. I couldn't take it anymore so I brought her into bed with me, gave her 4 oz instead of the normal 6 oz and brought her back into her crib and she fell asleep until 7ish.

    Saturday Night-Up at 2am, let her cry for 20 minutes and she finally fell back asleep-no bottle! YAY!!!! Up around 6:30am for the morning.

    Sunday Night-Up at 3am, let her cry for 11 minutes and she went back to sleep-no bottle!!! YAY!!!! Up around 6am for the morning.

    I feel like we're definitely making progress! It is super hard though to hear her cry and to know I'm not going in there to make her happy. But, I know in the end it will be worth it and she will be STTN soon!!

    Well, Friday night she seemed a little hysterical and that's why I went in to make sure she was ok. If she was crying really hard I would have gone in but she just sounded a bit pissed and whiney so I thought I would go ahead and let her CIO. I hate it though!!! =(
