Well, today was an awesome day. Wifey and I woke up and looked at each other. We both assumed that the baby must have woken up during the night and that the other one of us must have taken care of her.
Wifey looks at me and says “what time did you get up with Alex?” I replied, “I didn’t”. We both went in to check on her and there she was, just starting to stir and looking content.
I don’t know what, if anything, suddenly changed, but our current routine (and one we plan to keep) is to put her to bed around 8pm. Our little ritual is to change her diaper, put her in a night gown, and then feed her. We start around 7:15pm or 7:30pm and finish by about 8pm.
Once feeding is over, we bring her to her crib, sing twinkle twinkle little star to her and kiss her good night. We then tuck her under her blanket (which is tightly tucked into the sides of the mattress to avoid going over her face) and turn on her mobile. If she wants it, we give her a pacifier. She usually falls asleep within a few minutes.
We go to bed around 11pm, so we’ll wake up the baby about a half hour before Continue reading ‘Baby Alex sleeps through the night at 2.5 months!’
Well, I came home on Wednesday night around 7:30 from a training class I’m taking for work. Wifey was passed out sleeping on the couch. She never takes naps as she hates the groggy feeling she gets after waking up.
