Kate, though she is still working on those two new teeth, is still sleeping through the night. Which is exciting, other than the fact that with this new-found sleep also comes a new-found morning wake time: 6am. I am, as you can guess, not thrilled about this. In fact I am trying to figure out how to go back to waking once or twice at night if it means she’ll sleep until 8:30 again. But I’m willing to bet that since she is no longer dependent on me getting her to sleep she is starting to take her cues from elsewhere… like the sun. She has room blackout shades, which are taped down with masking tape, but light still filters around them. I am going to be getting drapes or something to hang in front of them, to see if that helps. I suspect it won’t work, though.<\/p>\n
On the good side of things when she does get up so early she’s awake and happy and playing for about an hour before some power switch in her flicks and she crumples in whines and back to bed we go – both of us. Until around 9:30. It occurs to me now that this is why she was on only 1 nap a day so young – she has been combining night sleep with a morning nap for a long time (typically sleeping around 13 hours at night, all told). Now it’s split up, amounting to roughly the same.<\/p>\n
Maybe next week she’ll start sleeping longer again, who knows.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
