hey everyone! so i know a few ppl now who have had trouble with there baby sleeping through the night. Encluding myself. So i decided to do some searching! finally. i should have done this before. so at i village i came accross so nift tips! so here are 8 tips for u! they r. #1 keep a routine at night so he knows its time for sleep #2 let him nap in a well lit area in the day, and a dark area at night so he know the difference #3 avoid diaper changes at night so he know.. nights r for sleeping! #4 try not to give your baby a pacifier at night so there is NO waking up when it falls out of his mouth! :) #5 Relax him before bed, swadle him or rock him, even if give him a bath if that is what sooths him. (keep the evenings calm and tv down so he doesnt get excited and awake) #6 if your baby sleeps in... wake him up earlier and put him to bed earlier so he sleeps when u sleep. #7 feed in the dark during the day to keep him from distractions.. this way he will be better fed and have a better chance at sleeping through the night. .... sound good?? i think so.. im going to try everyone of them!! yay i hope it works!! let me know if it does for u! :)

amen Sista!! thanks...love ya!
hey kristy! i hope that works for ya. norah was great at sleeping through the night and then when we got home from christmas, she started going through separation anxiety and started waking up again and being terrible at sleeping...
so i found this awesome program called the sleep sense program. let me know if you don't get things worked out. it's our third night using the program, it's 6:50 p.m., and norah is upstairs down for the night and sleeping "like a baby." it's been pretty quick and not too heart wrenching!!!
anyways, good luck!

hey kristy! We had the same problem! This kid would not sleep! EVER! it was a fight to get him to sleep and stay asleep. I was at the end of my rope. So I finally just put him in his crib tried but awake and let him cry. It was the hardest thing ever but it worked! the first night he woke up 2 times but we didnt go in and he stettled him self back down and slept all night! Now we get about 11-12 hours a night and 2 hour naps a day. So if you can handle it, I recommend it! lol
