Sleep Training - Week 1 Overview

11/15/2013

It was bad, then it was good, and now it's bad again. Ha! I could stop there, but maybe some of you want some more details (crying and sleeping totals are for the 24 hour period from bedtime through next day's 2 naps, also I should add they're totals for the baby, not me, haha):

DAY 1 = HORRIFIC!!
   Total Crying in Crib:  6.5 hours
   Total Sleep: 11.5 hours

DAY 2 = MUCH better!
  Total Crying in Crib:  1.5 hours
  Total Sleep: 9 hrs (boycotted 2nd nap)

DAY 3 = NOW we're talking!! ^_^
  Total Crying in Crib:  40 minutes
  Total Sleep: 14 hours (not a peep from 8pm-6:30am)

DAY 4 = Gooooooood!
  Total Crying in Crib:  1 hour
  Total Sleep: 13 hours (slept 8pm-7am with just a couple of peeps)

DAY 5 = Back to Exhaustion.
  Total Crying in Crib:  7 hours
  Total Sleep: 12 hours

DAY 6 = Better...
  Total Crying in Crib:  2.5 hours
  Total Sleep:  10 hours

DAY 7: Sucky suck mc. suck alot
  Total Crying in Crib:  5.5 hours
  Total Sleep: 10.5 hours (boycotted 2nd nap)

So, looking at his total time sleeping he is WAAAAAAY sleep deprived. He slept through the night 2 times out of the week. We're not doing so well... He's developed a cold with some pretty major congestion, and 2 bottom teeth are trying to bust through (his 7th and 8th teeth)
, so I'm hoping once these 2 issues are through he'll be sleeping through the night regularly and getting his much needed cumulative 14-15 hours of sleep. After all this, I'm definitely not going to revert back to letting him pass out at the breast, even when he's not feeling 100%. If he's really miserable I will comfort him in other ways, but not by co-sleeping and not at the breast. We will get through this... soon... fingers crossed!!! @_@

Napping peacefully at the moment! At least he doesn't pass out kneeling against the crib rail anymore! :P

I've been so anxious to hear how this was going - sad to hear not so well. You're doing all the right things, so it will eventually improve and be great. I'm proud of you for sticking with this!!
