Since you're obviously up..:)

When you feed LO in the MOTN, what sounds do you wait for before you get up to feed them?

Lately DS2 has been hungry in the MOTN and I feed him, obv. but he never actually cries when hungry - he used to when he was a newb but things have changed lately.  He's got this different sound that he makes when he's hungry, he attacks his rabbit with a loud chewing sound like pirates. ARR ARR ARR!!  So if I hear that, I go in.

Ironically, when he does cry in the MOTN I wait a minute because he always goes back to sleep.  (Bad dream or something?)

Anyone else LO weird like this?

  • I usually wait til she doesn't stop fussing for a few. If she is hungry she will keep fussing or crying when I pick her up. Sometimes she wants to lay in my bed for a few then I put her back into her bed.

  • If he is just fussing around some, then I give him his pacifier, but if he won't calm down for awhile I'll go ahead and feed him. If he is actually crying I almost always end up feeding him. Last night I woke up to dh bringing ds in to bed and talking to him. I was like, what are you doing? He said he went to check on him before bed and he was awake and didn't want this pacifier. But ds was just sitting there on his chest, looking around and happy. I guess he wasn't crying at all but dh thought he must be hungry since he was awake. I ended up feeding him but now dh knows not to bring him to me if he is just awake in his crib hanging out. Lol. At least he was trying to help.

    Oh yes, DH did this a few times when older DS was a baby.. that did NOT fly.  But at least your DH got up in the MOTN!

  • I wait for the cry vs. fussing.  A few times I've even gotten all the way down the hall to his door and he's back asleep.  Little brat just likes to get me out of bed!

  • Lol @ pirate sounds. Honestly, she's only been getting up once (knock in wood) so I just go in when I hear her. It already has me up and the times I didn't get up write away, it escalated and took longer to calm her.

  • If my  LO cries or fusses and I look on the monitor and she's not moving around too much, 99% of the time she will go back to sleep in a minute or so.

    If she is fussing and flailing around, she is hungry.  The first time she starteed this I thought something was wrong because she looked like she was having a seisure.
