Although I full-well knew from my experience with Cammie--letting her sleep in our bed far too long and then having to break while I was pregnant with Sophie--I caved too many times with Sophie.<br /><br />You'd think the memory of me curled up in a fetal position (pregnant, mind you) while Cammie cried and cried in her own bed would be all that I needed. You'd think that the memories of Courtney learning to put herself to sleep right about the age that Gavin is now--4ish months old--would be enough.<br /><br />But here I am re-doing the bedtime routine of old (you know, age twoish) and then working towards breaking her of getting in my bed in the wee hours. <br /><br />HEAVY. STINKIN'. SIGH.<br /><br />I am eating my own words. I will say that Sophie getting sick as well as a few other "very good reasons" would be the cause of us being where we are now. But we have let it drag on far too long. Sure, there have been many setbacks. And her tent and sleeping bag in our bedroom should be a great alternative. And it has. Yet, we have caved over and over again.<br /><br />Alas, we are in a battle. I am determined to win. With the help of Supernanny and her wisdom, of course.Lauren Delainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06992185662542598747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-144235032583435175.post-82295567052320210952010-03-31T06:05:44.647-07:002010-03-31T06:05:44.647-07:00My 15-year old, on the first night home, tried the...My 15-year old, on the first night home, tried the bassinet. A brute, he was. We found him under the mattress the first time we checked on him. His tiny muscles had already found a way to tear the place apart. His bassinet experience lasted all of an hour and he went to his own room.<br /><br />But a few weeks ago, that same 15-year old was up all night with Wyatt's bug, and I stayed up with him, and it was just like his labor, contractions like clockwork. <br /><br />Doesn't matter how big or strong or old they get, they look for that thing they get from their mama...Lyla Lindquisthttp://adifferentstory.netnoreply@blogger.com
