Aidan Update
Since starting the baby oatmeal, the Big A slept through the night for 4 nights in a row. But then out of the blue on the 5th night, he woke up at 3:30am. I was shocked because it was going so well. But after he chugged down 7 ounces and was still wide awake, I put him in his crib, covered him up with his blankets and kissed him good night. He looked at me with wide open eyes and I was convinced he would be calling my name by way of shouts within minutes of me closing his bedroom door. But I laid awake for 30 minutes waiting to hear something–anything–but he was able to drift off to sleep on his own. I was so proud.
He has continued to do that every night since the baby oatmeal; if he doesn’t sleep all the way through the night, when he does wake up, he is not fussy nor does he cry when he is put back in his crib wide-awake. Definitely makes my life 1,000 times easier!
