Lauren Sleeps

At Lauren’s 9 month appt. the Dr. told Jen Lauren should be sleeping 6 – 8 hours a night.

Ok then. Time to double down on the “sleep training/routine”.

Lauren gets a book, then it’s off to bed.

It’s not like we haven’t done this before, but this time it worked.

Instead of what’s been her usual up every 2 hours, she actually slept 5 hour the first stretch of her first night. I gave her a bottle, then she slept another 3 or 4. Somewhere in there (maybe even twice) she woke up and put herself back to sleep.

Last night was even better. Last night I woke up tossing and turning thinking she was dead because she slept 7 hours in the first stretch.

Is this it? Have we FINALLY reached the point of a sleeping baby?

We’ll give it a week and see.
