I eventually made sure he was well fed and tried again, he'd cry a little and then go to sleep. He slept through the night for a little while, but that seems so long ago, I can't remember. <br />Now at 1 year old he goes down with little trouble at around 8:30, but then wakes somewhere between 12-2 to nurse. The doctor said he probably wakes because I'm still nursing him. I don't mind though, when he wakes my husband gets him, puts him in our bed and then I feed him and fall asleep and he stays in bed until the morning. This is my solution to make sleep not an issue and to be able to function the next morning. It works well for us, but I wonder how long it will continue. I was talking to a friend who still nurses her 2 year old and she said he still wakes once at night as well. Oh well, I guess...both of us want to continue breastfeeding and feel okay with the sacrifice of waking at night, but I know that's not for everyone. <br />Best of luck! I know once I found a rhythm for my son it changed in a week or two, so I had to learn that nothing was permanent!Green Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09882093374736961628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2443476938921579533.post-56805661155074251372009-12-15T10:59:47.396-05:002009-12-15T10:59:47.396-05:00Good job mama... no one said this thing was gonna ...Good job mama... no one said this thing was gonna be easy... sounds like good advice to have though.

But at the time I felt like you needed encouragement more than advice.<br />So glad things seem to be getting better.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07365877790738634422noreply@blogger.com
