No joke

My kid has slept 7 hours in the last 31. She is totally boycotting sleep. What gives?? I'm thinking of that book right now.... Go the fuck to sleep.

Is she just way overtired? I don't know what else to do. We've tried everything. Looks like another long night.

She probably is overtired but you may have to just wait it out until it passes....
Is she teething and uncomfortable laying down or working on something new developmentally?

[hass2001]

She just wants to play!! She's not overly fussy at all. Happy as a clam. I'm suspecting teething and possible poo troubles. Going to get more prunes tomorrow.

Oh sweet lord, I am sorry. Butterbaby slept for shit all weekend, but he is sick. What if you left her to play in her crib while you pass out next to it?

Sounds to me like she is way over tired. The more tired C is the crappier his sleep is. It's a vicious cycle. Could you bring her in bed and side lay nurse her? That is my go-to for a restless C.

My LO did this once. I left her to play in her crib at midnight. About 20 minutes later it got awful quiet, she had fallen asleep sitting up and faceplanted. I went it and laid her down and she slept the night!

Hope you get some sleep soon.

Aw, sounds awful, Hass. Hope she did okay for you last night. I second the idea of leaving her in the crib to play and going to sleep yourself!

Yikes, mama! I bet she's way overtired. My kiddo would be demon baby at that point. If that were us, I'd be putting him in his crib promptly at 7 p.m. tonight with lots of white noise and not going back in until morning (or normal feed time). But we're pretty hard core about sleep in our house, due to DS's extreme sleep fighting.
