sleep

yes she finally did it! She slept through the night without waking up!!!! I've been working very hard at this. I definetley didnt do it the way other people do it by just letting them cry is out, that is just torture for me and her. Yes i did it the longer way but thats the only way i can do it. Probably a couple weeks ago i started putting her in her crib and letting her try and fall asleep on her own for her naps. Sometimes she would play, fuss a little and then go to sleep. Sometimes not and i would get her out wait a little bit and put her back in. Sometimes i would do that three times. But eventually she would go down. Sometimes were easy others not but it got her somewhat used to doing it by herself. Then when i would give her a bottle at night to go to bed and if she didnt fall asleep doing that i would burp her and lay her in her crip and she would usually go right down. Then about 4 nights ago i stopped giving her a bottle during the night. I woudnt give her a bottle after 4pm and give her baby food around 6pm and then that way she would have a 7 to 8 oz bottle before she went to bed so i knew she wouldnt be hungry. she did wake up crying really hard between 3:30 and 5:30. I would let her cry and help her out by giving her her pacifire. I eventually after a little bit of her crying (i didnt want to get her too soon) i would rock her and let her calm down and then put her back in her crib and she would go to sleep. That happened for 3 nights and then by the 4th she didnt wake up at all!!! Also one thing that helped sooooo much is she is able to find her binky and put it back in her mouth. Anyway thats how i went about it and im so glad she caught on.
