After about a solid week of Lindsey being up off and on ALL night, I asked the doctor what I could do about it at her 6 month well check appointment. He had a few simple tips: stop feeding her at night (still breastfeeding), do not pick her up, and let her cry--but to check on her intermittently and give her her pacifier. I have been using his advice this past week and it has made a huge difference.Last night I put her to bed at 8:30pm, heard two peeps out of her in the middle of the night--didn't have to get up as she fell back to sleep--and I HAD to wake her up finally at 7:30am because I was going to explode!! It was Lindsey's best night of sleep EVER!!! I sure hope this isn't a fluke. Guess we'll see!
