So we moved her/bassinet to the other bathroom at night. As soon as she started sleeping through the night she started bunking next to Katelyn and they do really well together. <BR/><BR/>It was only about 5 weeks of craziness with Sarah until she started sleeping through the night (10-6) and around 8 weeks (8:30-8:30). These days it's like (8-6:30) but she will sleep until 8 if we aren't loud in the morning...For what it's worth. <BR/><BR/>Katelyn was pretty much the same way 6 weeks on the sort- of sleep and then 12 weeks for full sleep. On Katelyn we did the feeding her immediately waking up letting it settle for 30 minutes and then playing hard, sleep, when she wakes up feed. Sarah only went down if she was nursed but she's sort of grown out of that. <BR/><BR/>What can I say each child does his/her own thing. Hang in there!<BR/>Lol, Stace<BR/>PS Sorry about the length!Starley Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05439802541024360618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556866344991785149.post-72859118755037358232008-11-23T08:29:00.000-08:002008-11-23T08:29:00.000-08:00Girl I feel for you, It has been almost a year sin...Girl I feel for you, It has been almost a year since we have had to deal with that. I'm very thankful for the way things are now, They are worth it, and they do grow up fast, so in a short period you will be saying, it seems like yesterday he wasn't sleeping haha. Hopefully sooner than later. You are a great mom, keep up the good work on those beautiful babies of yours.

I bought this little bed thing from Walmart that goes in your bed (to prevent you from rolling on the baby) and Lexi sleeps right with us. The first night she was home I tried the crib thing and I just couldn't handle getting up every 2 hours, so I tried this an it worked. When Lexi whimpers I just reach over and stick the binki in her mouth, or when she wants to eat, I just prop myself up and feed her. Now Dave isn't sold on the whole idea, cuz when she whimpers he can hear it, but if it works for me, then that's what I'm going to do :) I need my sleep. Suprisingly Lexi sleeps longer with us than without.Natalie Ropelatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15962680579632641118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4556866344991785149.post-51686819226032209562008-11-18T11:08:00.000-08:002008-11-18T11:08:00.000-08:00Hey!!
