I know I shouldn't say this but...
She slept through last night! From 7.30-6.30!! Bloody hell, I've probably jinxed it now but I'm just so excited!

I cannot tell you how jealous I am. I am now resigned to the fact that Peter isn't going to sleep through until he is weaned but I could do without nights like last night. He was up from 10:30 until midnight then again at quarter to 4 and quarter to 7. *yawn* Oh, and he has only had 3 half hour naps so far today so he is going to be horrible by bed time. (
Im also very jealous and think that Max will only sleep through when he's weaned and even then it'll be a miracle! I dream feed him when i go to bed then he wakes around 1am, 3am and 5am-how ive not died of sleep depravation i dont know!xx
Im lucky that Max doesn't mess about-he's fed, burped and back to sleep within 15mins and im doing much better at getting back to sleep myself so i shouldn't grumble really-!xx
Daisy sleeps through - so much so that we call her Lazy Daisy (!), I have to say that I think I'm pretty lucky because she's been doing it since 6 weeks (on and off though).
Do you guys all have a structured routine at night? I've found that helps with us...

I guess we all have aspects which work, even if they don't necessarily sleep through. There are times when I would exchange our bed time for seven solid hours sleep (as you say, Missy, I have very little patience in the middle of the night), but I think I can probably manage for a few more months. Well, I hope I can...
It's a Baby Whisperer thing (my bible!!!) whereby you wake them 2 hours after bedtime, so 9pm, for example, then 11pm... You can dreamfeed these feeds as well so as not to completely wake them up..
I found this worked for me when Daisy wasn't quite going through...

Sorry I can't help with any more suggestions... At least he goes 5-6 hours in the meantime...

MrsButtons, do you think she's making it up to you after your pregnancy?!
TheHistoryGirl, you will make it through. Try and remember that the rubbish sleepers usually turn out to be the best later on, so they say. It's true of my Angelo anyway, who was probably the worst ever (you really wouldn't believe). He's now 21 months and sleeps from 7pm until 8 or 9 and has 1 or 2 naps during the day.
I have been doing the pick up put down thing (also baby whisperer) before putting her to bed including for her naps. So, the new Nina could be because of this. Again, fingers crossed for all babies for tonight. x
Fingers crossed that Nina keeps up the good work for you!

God, do you think she's sleeping too much???????????

Sorry to hear that Nina isn't playing ball - I'm sure Daisy is the exception to the rule, especially when I see what other people's babies do at Mum and Baby group...
Hope it improves soon and in the meantime, grab sleep whenever you can!!
