Poor Daddee. Hand in there. Babies grow up fast. That's a consolation of some sort in view of disrupted sleep I suppose... I can only imagine the strain your body and brain are going through. I always say, I can't imagine those moms who have to breastfeed through the night and then go to work in the morning. I salute them. And I salute now. I know how the brain just can't work for lack of sleep... on top of the age factor. Hahahaha... Have a good week. [ Moomykin's last blog post..A Time To Heal ]

Boost up on vitamins (if you beleive in them) and try to catch power naps in between. Sorry, no remedy to break the habit (my experience is there will be phases of wakingness and sleep-thrus) but at least there are ways for the adult to cope. Hope you can catch up on your sleep during the weekends. Take care. [ Ann's last blog post..A moment of silence ]

Been there, done that, don't miss it. The only difference? Both my kids were breastfed so I was the one up with them 100% of the time. Oh, and you don't really mean to break the baby, right? You just want to break the baby's waking habit. I'm sure that's what you would have written if not so sleep-deprived. Sleep deprivation is a terrible thing.

All the usual suspects, ie teeth, illness, change in temperature, developmental leap result in lighter sleep. Also I've noticed bubs tend to be very much more aware of what's going in in their night time surroundings from six months, and only seem to go back into that deep undisturbed sleep after two and a half. In our household the best solution for the nocturnal E was to move her to her own room. She still wakes from time to time for all of the first reasons I've listed, but no longer from snoring or us parents creeping intothe bedroom to go to bed! Is a move to another room a possibility for Caleb, even temporarirly until he learns to resettle? [ hissychick's last blog post..Sweet sixteen ]
