Sleeping thru the night!!!! YAY!!

Comment Published at 14:4614:467 comments7 comments27 Visits27 VisitsReport

Well, as most of you know, i started controlled crying a couple of weeks ago. I nearly gave on day 3 or 4 i think, but i am soo soo soooo glad that i didn't. For the past 3 nights Austin has slept thru the night from 6.30 - 6.30 only waking for 1 feed at about 11.30. Which is GREAT! I can handle getting up once!

He is now not making a fuss when i put hm down. Sometimes i will hear him playing with his cuddly blanket toy, but other than that, nothing. When he wakes up, he lays in there and talks to himself for 20 mins. Which is also great, coz i am not jumping straight up out of bed like i was when he was crying, so now i get a chance to wake up slowly! YAY!

I just wanted to say thankyou to Cazza for being there for me on msn when i was sitting here listening to him scream. It is amazing how much it helped just having you there to talk to!

And to Nicky - I hope your little angel is sleeping better for you now too.

Love Cass xx

It's a great feeling isn't it when your children sleep all the way through the night. My youngest child, she slept all the way through the night since she was 10 days old. I was really blessed and lucky to have a child like that.

Congratulations you won the battle....  I am so happy for you..  Must have been very hard for you to go through all that.    Hooray for little Austin!!!!!  what a trooper, you both deserve a pat on the back well done!

My bubs does the same things plays for a bit with teddy then sleeps no probs.  He also wakes and plays.  Last night he slept from 7.30 to 6.30 so really happy about that.

Fingers crossed that he continues to sleep well for you.

Take care - Angie

Re: Sleeping thru the night!!!! YAY!!

Thanks Angie

It was very hard, and frustrating and heartbreaking. But i really needed sleep. It was getting me down always being tired. And doing it on my own all week wasn't helping. But i am glad i did it.

You know it was actually one of your blogs that made me realise i had to do it! LOL

Have a great week!! xox
