Baby G slept in his bed ALLLLLLL night last night :shock:
As I'm sure I've mentioned, we started putting him in his bed to start the night a couple of months ago. Most nights he would start there, and most of those nights he would sleep 4 hrs that first stretch. Then I would go get him and he'd stay in bed with me the rest of the night/morning.
Then he got sick.
He came back to bed with us full time. After a good 3 weeks of icky floating around, he was on the mend. Back to his usual self. I tried him in his bed the other night, eh...
Then last night he went down, as usual, fussed for just a couple of minutes (as he does whether he goes down by himself in his bed or mine LOL), then that was it. That was around 9 - 9:30 ?? I never heard another peep out of him.
In fact, this morning...I woke up, had to go to the bathroom, glanced at the clock and couldn't believe he was still in his bed. It was 7 am! After my trip to the bathroom I peek in there to check on him. He pops his little head up as soon as the door opens, and begins crawling my way. :)
I picked him up and we came back to my bed for a morning snuggle and snack.
Of course, *I* still woke up several times during the night. Having been trained so well by little man to wake frequently LOL But I didn't stay awake, just a stir, stop, listen for baby....nope, ok...zzzzzzzz hehe
I don't expect this to be the norm now by any means. But even one night of such rest...aaaaah...sweet :D
