Sleep Whisperer

My friend Edit called me last night asking for tips on getting her kid to sleep through the night. I offered her all my 'wisdom' from having two kids, encouraged her and shared some resources with her. ... Only to have Zoe wake up from 4am-5am!! Grrrr. There is no magic to it, no rhyme or reason half the time. I wish they could be programmed, I wish I could get a full night's sleep from 6 months on...just not gonna happen. I don't mind so much it's just that right when I get used to her sleeping through the night, goes for a month or two like gold, that she does this and I'm NOT used to it! I know it's probably teething so I offer her teething gel, more milk, rock her a bit and play her favorite music....but I wake up feeling like crap! It happens to all of us...just gotta stay positive I guess.

Looking forward to going to sleep early tonight, already....
