starryeyeddreamer · January 2011

for night time:1. where does LO sleep? he starts out in his room in his crib, but when he wakes up - he comes to bed with us. 2. how do you get LO to go to sleep? he nurses to sleep most nights, then I transfer him to his crib. When he doesn't nurse to sleep - I lay down with him for a few minutes - if that doesn't work, I bring him to his crib and sit there with him until he falls asleep. Some days he wakes up when I am transferring him - I lay him down and he is awake but drowsy and falls asleep even when I leave the room. 3. how long does it take LO to fall asleep? On a good night - 30 minutes. Rough night - an hour and a half-ish. 4. how long does LO sleep at night total? He goes down between 7:30-8 (8:30 on a rough night). He wakes up between 4am-5am to nurse. Goes back down until 7am-8am. So about 10-12 hours total.5. how many times does LO wake up? Normally once - at 4-5am when I nurse him and he stays in our bed until we wake up together. A couple of nights a week - 2 or 3 times - he wakes up to nurse though. All week he has only been waking up at 5am again - so hoping his STTN continues again!
