You did an amazing job. Wow! Not only is it great for you and B but also for our Peanut.

Just do your best and we all know you are!!! I think the note idea is great. Good luck and you are in our prayers.Marienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-54462175934985599602011-09-16T11:52:12.342-07:002011-09-16T11:52:12.342-07:00I have a 15 mo. and his night time sleep varies.

Most nights he sleeps 10 1/2 hours. i would say if peanut is going 8 hours now he is doing great. Mine only went about 9 at that age then I'd give him a bottle and he'd go back down for 2 hours. Its all about what you can handle.Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02329756570470367427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-66114061292226134242011-09-16T09:51:06.461-07:002011-09-16T09:51:06.461-07:00Wow, 8 hours! You're doing great.
I didn'...Wow, 8 hours! You're doing great. <br />I didn't let mine take a lot of naps during the day. One 2 hour nap in the middle of the day was about it by this age. <br />They slept between 11 and 12 hours by this age, but that was mine. <br />Babies cry. I wouldn't worry so much about the neighbors unless you're throwing wild parties at 2 am. If someone complains send them some of those great baked goods you're so good at and that should help smooth things over. <br />ChrystalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-29987064091719249962011-09-16T09:02:51.388-07:002011-09-16T09:02:51.388-07:00My favorite go to chart for sleep hours: http://w...My favorite go to chart for sleep hours: http://www.babycenter.com/0_how-much-sleep-does-your-child-need_64915.bc<br /><br />I referred to it for both my boys and will again with this next one. :)<br /><br />Aiden was always a great sleeper, Liam didn't sleep through the night till 19 months, they are all so different, and need different amounts of sleep. You're doing great, and before you know it, your sleepless nights and days will be a thing of the distant past. :) Good Luck Momma!Jamie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11382845963851367625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-39245227829192974762011-09-16T08:56:08.680-07:002011-09-16T08:56:08.680-07:00You know I have mixed feelings about sleep trainin...You know I have mixed feelings about sleep training.<br />It's such a hot topic, so I won't get too involved, but I thought this was a good little bit of advice: <br /> <br />(from the Dr Sears website)<br /><br />"Stay flexible. No single approach will work with all babies all the time, or even all the time with the same baby. Don't persist with a failing experiment. If the "sleep program" isn't working for your family, drop it.<br /><br />Follow your heart rather than some stranger's sleep-training advice, and you and your baby will eventually work out the right nighttime parenting style for your family". <br /><br />I love you. I know you are an awesome mommy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-59728704960229385812011-09-16T06:54:59.091-07:002011-09-16T06:54:59.091-07:00Oh girl that would stress me out too.

Just keep being consistent. My girls were so opposite. Big Chick kept us up a lot. Little chick slept through the night within the first 2 weeks of bringing her home...no joke. I swear she slept 22 hours a day!Farmgirl Paintshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205054615599523192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510148679606227270.post-63641200709974154052011-09-16T06:45:46.383-07:002011-09-16T06:45:46.383-07:00I've heard of people writing notes to neighbor...I've heard of people writing notes to neighbors during sleep training! I think that's a really nice idea, and anyone who's had children should be sympathetic and understanding. And if they're not, give them a plate of some of your fabulous baked goodies--that oughta smooth things over. :o) <br /><br />Right now Grace sleeps about 10-11 hours a night and the twins sleep about 12. I can't remember what they slept at 10 months. But you are so on the right track! Good job!Elle Beehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15802857137836550901noreply@blogger.com
