Guys, she's asleep!

[creamsiclechica]

I've tried to keep her busy and moving all day today, and structured, so we're really working on it. We did swim class, followed by lunch, then playtime, then nap, then we went to the park for a loooooong walk and running on the playground. We came home, read books, ate dinner, bath, snuggle, and bed. IT WORKED, for now at least. Please pray she stays asleep at least for a little while, apparently your good thoughts are doing the trick!!

I hope you have a restful night! Sending sleepy vibes your way!!

[monkeybabe]

Maybe I should try something like this. We don't have swim class, but perhaps Zoe could just run in the park every morning and then more park after nap.

Sending (continuous) sleepy thoughts your way!

[monkeybabe]

Also, I hope she sleeps! You deserve it!

Good vibes!

Fingers crossed! Colin went down in like 10 minutes tonight too. Tennessee miracle?

[charmediamsure]

Yay!!  (Said very quietly)

[TrudyCampbell]

Fingers crossed!

Get outta here and GO TO SLEEP!

[silverjm]

I hope the rest of the night goes well! Lots of positive thoughts and sleepy dust headed your way.

[joyhart02]

Yay!! Sleep baby sleep.

[chasbride07]

Keeping my fingers crossed for you! Now go to bed!

[rjamz]

Ah, what a feeling! Good luck tonight!

[creamsiclechica]

I love you guys! I'm going to eat cheese, chocolate, and grapes snuggled on the couch with my husband for the first time in like 7 weeks, literally! AHHHHHHHHHHHH!

[lolaburns]

This is awesome! I'm doing a "Go A Go sleepy sleep happy dance " right now!!!

[kdrake8]

This sounds amazing!! I hope so much that she sleeps a wonderfully long time for you!

[carawestt]

Yay! Fingers crossed!

[shevacc]

Yay! So happy to see this thread! I hope it works...crossing fingers. You deserve this DH snuggle time.

[bean47]

This is so great! I hope you get some good rest - I bet you're beat too.

I'm excited to hear how the rest of the night is going!! Hope you are resting!

[monkeybabe]

I hope the night is continuing to go well!

[rubber pants]

How did she do???

[katfco]

That's great! How did the rest of the night go?

[TrudyCampbell]

I want to know how she did, too!

[claralou]

Yay Bella!! I think Clara and Bella must have struck a deal, because my little miss decided sleep was entirely unnecessary last night (which is why I didn't message you as promised, creamsiclechica). I hope it's because they decided to trade places and Bella gave you a decent night's sleep!! Update when you can!!

[raynes]

I hope last night was a good one!

[creamsiclechica]

So we did a LOT better last night than we have, so I'll take it. We made it 9pm to 2am with no wake ups! After that, things got rough, but it's a work in progress, and any forward motion that includes a 5 hour stretch is good for me, lol

She woke at 2 and wouldn't go back down until 3. Then up at 4:30, 5:30, 6:30, and up for the day at 8:45. I only nursed her at 2 and 5:30, so we did the rest with soothing as best we could.

Thank you all for getting excited with me over this. I want this to be a start of something good! I'm hoping staying strict and adding structure (because she starts preschool in two weeks too), will help us get on track.

And dude, just being able to watch crap TV on the couch with Matt for an hour and a half felt like a freaking DATE NIGHT. So I feel like a million bucks today!

[laurack]

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! I am so happy for you guys. This is wonderful news!

[rileym2010]

Yay! Hope it continues to go better
