As we mentioned in our last post, Tom put Emily to bed without the swaddle on Thursday night while I was out of town. Emily did great, and pretty much slept through the night. Then Friday and Saturday nights she did ok, woke up a few times each night, but went back to sleep easy enough.
Sunday and Monday nights went downhill. She just kept waking up and had a hard time calming down. Both nights we ended up putting her back in the swaddle by around 2am just so we could get some sleep. We aren't giving up yet, but already decided that tonight the second time she wakes up we are putting the swaddle back on just so we can sleep. Hopefully she will get the hang of it soon. Part of the problem is that she is developing her skills of rolling over and has woken up the past two nights trying to roll over and gets stuck in the halfway rolled over position because she is not totally awake or aware of what she is doing!
Time to go get some more caffeine!
