It was so rough on us. I was a walking zombie literally.I know exactly how you feel!! <BR/>Finally last year he slept in his own bed in his own room. It was glorious! Once in a while he still wakes up in the middle of the night and crawls into bed with us, but we don't mind it. Hey, whatever helps him sleep!Valerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14266818450388682573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19760084.post-89125675848163291012009-03-27T17:22:00.000-05:002009-03-27T17:22:00.000-05:00I couldn't view the video but it sounds cute.

But only on days he went to bed overly exhausted. I know it sounds wierd, but being overly tired actually disrupted his ability to sleep at night. I just thought I would mention that...<BR/><BR/>Once he developed a perminate nap schedule, he actually slept well at night too...Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01377382094942924170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19760084.post-1452309525793675882009-03-27T12:14:00.000-05:002009-03-27T12:14:00.000-05:00Oh Mia, you naughty little girl :)At least your Ch...Oh Mia, you naughty little girl :)<BR/>At least your Cheese-Its are less expensive than the $4.00 a box Girl Scout cookies that are saving my sanity. <BR/>I'd planned on the co-sleeping too, but uh, it's not working out. Our issue is daytime naps, as Lola will sleep through the night, but naptime is a huge fight.

My best advice is FILL em up with Food, cd playing lullabies and a completely dark room with no mommy in it. I had planned to co-sleep but it didn't work. Every kid is different so be open to try lots of stuff in the name of SLEEP!!!Stephehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04848642560851324087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19760084.post-68503177075171676452009-03-27T06:09:00.000-05:002009-03-27T06:09:00.000-05:00poor mama.
