Deep breath

OK, so tonight we're starting sleep training (sleepeasy). We've decided her bedtime will be around 8, to give her daddy time to see her after work, but tonight she went down at 6:20. She was so exhausted because she missed her afternoon nap, and kept trying to fall asleep during dinner.

So anyway, she fell asleep within the first ten minutes but woke up again about 15 minutes after that. Hopefully she'll settle and sleep longer, but we're preparing ourselves for a looooong night. Listening to her cry sucks big monkey balls.

I feel like tonight can't be much worse than what's been going on recently with her being up every hour, but I probably just jinxed it and now she'll be up every half hour all night.

No point to this, just a nervous mama babbling a bit.

Good luck!! I hope that it goes smoothly for you. Have you stocked up on emotional eating needs?

I have donuts, ice cream, and chocolate, as well as a liter of pepsi. The only way it would be better is if I had some chips and dip...

We are going to give her own room and crib a try tonight too. I am just too tired these last couple of weeks of waking up 3+ times a night to nurse. What happened to her sleeping a 6-8 hour stretch is beyond me! Good luck to you.
