How did your LO sleep last night?

drvst8 · December 2012

Since its been a hot topic lately I thought I would check in and see how everyones night went?

DD didn't want to nap yesterday...so she was pretty grumpy last night. But she got her bedtime bottle and was out. She only ate 2 oz instead of 4 so I knew it she wouldn't sleep long. But she slept from 830 till 2. Ate another 2 oz. I thought she would want more but she passed out. But she didn't stay that way. So we got up and she actually ate some more. And by 4 she was offically out. We went back to bed. We both slept then til about 8 this morning so overall not a bad night.

And Now I have a very happy baby who is kicking up a storm and talking to me like crazy. I hope this lasts!

My little went to bed at 7:45 relatively easily as usual and then was up at 8:30 and after 45 minutes trying to get her back to bed we just let her be up for a while......we all went to bed at 11ish and she was up at 2 and then the rest of the night was a party - I don't keep track of how many/what time she wakes up anymore. lol. We bed share so that makes it easier to just nurse her side lying but this no sleep thing is getting tiring!

I admit, I don't know what I'm doing. I'm running on pure instinct....apparently that instinct doesn't know how to get a baby to sleep more than 3 hours.

Meh. She was fussing at 3:30 so I went in to check on her, and she had broken out of her swaddle. I put her pacifier in, and she slept until 5. I gave her a bottle, and then had to wake her up at 7:30 to get ready for daycare. Of course I didn't really fall back to sleep at 3:30, so I'm exhausted.

8 to 12 great sleep after that every hour and a half waking up hungry which means I got little to no sleep. And now he wants to sleep but big sister is awake so no sleep today. Please nap today both of you kids ok mommy need sleep.

I really had hoped DD was past the sleep regression since she slept 8-9 hours the last two nights, but apparently not. Last night she fell asleep at 8:30, I put her in her crib and she woke up crying around 9. This continued until 11:30 when thankfully she fell asleep. And she woke up at 5 this morning, when she usually sleeps around 8 hours straight and wakes up happy. She did take a nap for about an hour this morning and has been happy since then, but we'll see.

DS was an angel last night.. Sat with us for over an hour and a half while DH and I decorated the Christmas tree.. DS was amazed watching the lights! Then he went to bed around 8:30 and slept until 8:30 this morning.. We have been very fortunate.. DS was a good sleeper even as a newborn.. He would wake every 3 hours to feed, but always slept well right from the get go.. DH and I used to joke that he slept so well at night because he spent ALL day screaming crying! It was a trade off.. We had a good sleeper, but he was extremely colicky.. Now at almost 5 months, colic is almost gone and we get to enjoy a happy baby during the day and a sleeping baby at night!!

I kept DS up a little later last night (8:30 as opposed to 8:00) in hopes that he would sleep in a little since today is my day off. He went down without a problem and slept until 8 this morning! Currently napping as I type! He's been a great sleeper since about 4 mos old. Before that was a different story!

Please don't hate me...
My kid ate at 9, then played till 10, fussed and squirmed till 11, then slept till 7!!!

DD has been sleeping crappy for about a week, and what made it worse was that wed & thurs night last week she only woke 1-2 times each night, including her MOTN feeding...so we got spoiled quickly. Yesterday I finally figured out that her problem was probably the 19 week "Wonder Week" stuff. But I put her in this outfit to hopefully give me good karma:

"All Mommy wants is a...Silent Night"

And while she didn't sleep great last night, she definitely slept better. I'm not sure if it was the outfit or if she's done with the wonder week. I'm just hoping she continues to get better.

Ditto!!! DS is up a million times a night. Not 3-4, more like 15-16 times. And apparently I suck at stopping it haha. He sleeps 2.5 hours max but usually eats every 1.5 hours and wakes up 2-3x between feedings. LAME

DS slept from 9:30 to 2. That was a record folks! Then up at 5 and 7. The night before was every 2 hours. He's tough to get to sleep! I put him down and BAM wide awake. So we have been cosleeping. It helps both of us, just worried about the crib transition.

This is for DD too. She is an excellent night sleeper but crappy napper. I guess that's our trade. She usually only gets up once for MOTN feeding around 4am or STTN which is from 8pm to 8am most nights. I'm thinking we will be in for it with 2 whenever the time comes!haha

DS was great. Down without a fuss shortly after 8, up at 3 for a snack & went right back to sleep until 6:30.

Before you get jealous, though, DD was up at 1, then every 10 minutes or so from 2:30 - 4:00, then up for good. I think it's a conspiracy that they generally don't have a bad night on the same night - they take turns and spread the wealth.
