Have patience. The bit I learned is how they fall asleep at the beginning of the night dictates their behavior during the night. Does Atticus fall asleep on his own at night or is he asleep when you put him down. If he doesn't know how to go to sleep on his own, he won't know how to go to sleep on his own when he wakes up at night. If he does, then I go back to patience, that works too.Elisabethnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3298495631546915310.post-9760160643437532282011-07-27T12:40:09.000-04:002011-07-27T12:40:09.000-04:00I'm always here for therapy and Batticus dutie...I'm always here for therapy and Batticus duties!

At least a little ;)<br><br>Jude was 15 months when he finally slept through the night, and I had a freak-out about it around Atticus's current age as well. It seemed to be the time I started doubting my own ideas and tactics. Just know it will happen eventually, and for me, when I stopped worrying and fighting it is when it finally got better. Maybe coincidence, but that's how it went. <br><br>And don't beat yourself up about the dairy. You are still breastfeeding despite working full time and NOBODY does that. Be proud!! Seriously, you deserve a pat on the back for being dedicated. :)Katiehttp://mamathereader.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
