I don't know what happened to our baby that slept through the night basically since he came home from the hospital. He recently started getting up 2 or sometimes 3 plus times at night. Teething? Hungry? Or maybe now he's just in the BAD habit of waking up. We ruled out everything we could think of, so we've been letting him cry it out. I remember when decided it was time to let Campbell cry it out how my heart physically HURT - once I literally had to leave the house and let Gabe deal with it. Poor second child - I don't have that same physical pain I had with Campbell when she would cry. I know that it's in his best interest for him to learn how to sleep through the night again. He had a couple episodes of crying and now is sleeping better. But he's still waking up at night - he's not sleeping through the night anymore much to my dismay.
A couple random things to note about Mr. Blake.
We stopped swaddling Blake after he started getting up a lot at night because we wondered if it was bothering him. I don't think I've mentioned this, but we discovered the Woombie with Blake. It's awesome & one of only a few things I would recommend to new parents. Not only did I laugh every time I put him in it because he looked like he was in a cocoon, but because he really seemed to sleep well in it until now. I took a picture of his last time in it...
He's started really chowing down baby food. He's an angry eater - yelling when I don't shovel it in fast enough. I can't believe the volume he eats. I better start stocking up food for when he's a teenager!
