Good morning everyone, how are y'all doing today?

Hugs. Where did you land on sleep training?

[allycat]

Our night was decent last night. F slept from 6:30-1:45, when he nursed and was awake for about 20 minutes, then he slept til 5:45. Nursed again and brought him to bed for bonus sleep til 6:45.

Please, please continue on this trend, tiny human.

I've just been really busy at work this week so haven't been around TCF much. Sorry ladies.

We are doing a more subtle approach than CiO so our goal is to not pick her up and let her know we are there since her SA is so bad. DH was up with her most of the night because it was my birthday. But I woke at 1:50 to feed her and was in there with my hand of her back until 2:50 when DH took over. But I couldn't fall back asleep for awhile after that. So not good. Ha

But at least she wasn't wailing like she had in the past, so it does make me feel like it is reassuring to her and now she just has to figure out how to get comfortable falling asleep in the crib.

We have an open house tonight, going to pay for our van, and need to finish packing. We take off tomorrow for our house trip. I need a whole bunch of luck. If the world went my way, the house would get an offer and DD2 would sleep the entire flight. But likely none of those things will happen.

ldubhawksfan, Happy birthday! Sorry sleep is still so hard.

That sounds like progress! I had a friend do a similar approach and slowly worked her way out of the room over the course of a couple weeks and it seemed to work for her. Good luck!

As for us, we hate teeth to the nth degree. I finally got a decent look at his bottom gums this morning and while nothing seems to have broken through yet, I can tell they've at least migrated towards the top of his gums because I can only see half of them below the surface now. I hope beyond hope that means they're gonna push through soon because waking up every freaking hour for the last like 4 nights is NOT FUN.

Same. Hugs

Happy belated ldubhawksfan!

G decided to wake up early, after I had a hard time falling asleep. Plus I'm sick... Today will not be a blue ribbon day for this mommy.

[fuzzylogic]

We had a decent night -- one more wakeup than I would have liked -- but we were able to go to the library and for a short drive this morning. Now she is -- wait for it -- NAPPING IN THE CRIB. She cried for awhile, started freaking, so I nursed and rocked her, then put her in with my hand on her back for about 30 seconds and she's been out for about 15 minutes :::::FINGERS CROSSED:::::

It's too hot to do much else. I'm slowly chipping away at my journalism class powerpoints and handouts. I still have to make exams and some rubrics, and the entire photography, video, and yearbook units; but those don't come until October so I have some time.

It's my Friday too...and I am saying F it to work, and going home early today. I have a headache brewing. The kiddo is sleeping well. He woke up at 5a crying, but managed to find his paci, and just as I was about to go into his room, he stopped crying and passed back out! Woohoo..

Otherwise, nothing new except him trying to walk..and bonking his noggin on everything

[ldubhawksfan]

I don't want anything for lunch. But I need to eat!!

Hi guise!

Nothing new here. E killed her dinner. I'm so happy tomorrow is Friday.

I think we might have a sensitivity or very mild allergy to eggs. We had a rash around her mouth after breakfast and some wheezy breathing but it disappeared as quickly as it came. She's had eggs cooked in things, so it's odd. We're going to keep her away from scrambled eggs though until I can talk to the pedi at her 9mo well check.

Oh, and she has a little diaper rash now. Fun..... I put butt paste and aquaphor on it so well see how it is in the morning.

that definitely sounds like an allergy, especially if she was wheezing. kids with egg allergies, depending on the severity can sometimes have it when it's baked into things, but not when it's just by itself. There's a girl in our daughter's class at school with an egg allergy. She can have eggs in baked goods because they cook at a higher temp for a longer time which breaks down the enzymes but not any eggs just fried or scrambled or anything like that.

Interesting. We'll definitely stay away from them for now!

Ya this. I've never seen a doctor to confirm an egg allergy, but every time I have ever eaten eggs alone I barf soon afterwards. Eggs cooked in things are zero issue for me. I've just lived my life getting weird looks from waitresses when I order breakfast specials and ask to hold the eggs. It's apparently a hard concept

[rachaeleigh]

Not much going on here. This is my Friday as well. I have a 3 day weekend that I'm very excited about.

LO is in bed, I have some ice cream, and I just started Netflix

[fuzzylogic]

Re: eggs: I don't eat the whites, they make me feel barfy. But if I eat scrambled eggs, it's okay. As long as it's not too early in the day, then I feel barfy. But if I eat them at night for brinner, it's fine.

Anecdote: eggs and I have a complicated relationship.
