Good morning!!!

Happy Half week… I have been super mom with play dates, activities that I have not been the best at keeping up with Amy blog… I have to balance baby girl schedule, and now I am working on Sleep. I probably have touch this subject once before but now that Amy is one I think no subject is boring concerning a baby. Ever since Amy was a little baby she was always been a sleep fighter never slept though the night and def doesn’t do it fully yet. I think I tried it all from putting cereal in her milk, to warming up her milk, to bathing her with soothing soap to lotion you name it!! Just now she finally wakes up once maybe twice during the night. What’s the trick there isn’t any every baby is different what Amy does great at in other areas she lack in sleep lol. I think it could be the fact that I didn’t nap during my pregnancy I over worked and I stay up late could barely sleep. Any new moms or pregnant moms reading this….. take advantage and sleep when you can trust me it helps before the baby gets here.

Every month she find a new sleepin position just as she turn One she learn to sleep on her belly with butt up, at first I was scare because I thought what if she can’t breathe so I would fight her and turn her and she roll back to tummy position. The funny thing is that when she was smaller she hated tummy time now she loves to sleep on it. 

When we went to her doctor for her One year the doctor said I had to not feed at night and let her be but I think she gets thirsty and I’m not giving her more then 4oz of milk, I know it thirst cause sometimes she won’t finish it. I have cut down a lot on bottle and snacking more in between meals so she doesn’t want the bottle. I have to be a bit more tougher on this night bottle, I was glad she didn’t like the pacifier but the bottle seem to be her soothing during the night. She does have her fave blanket type but even that doesn’t help long, it a temp soothing for her then she back at waking up. 

I have even tried to keep her awake as long as possible during the day, she still wakes up at night. I can say sometimes it works there has been a few times she slept and only woke up Once. I think the sleep I blame myself because I didn’t sleep much while pregnant. I plan to have another baby in the future and maybe I will do the test on that one to see how much mothers not sleeping impact child when he/she is born. If any mothers have any other suggestions or would like to share their ideas to help baby sleep comment below.
