Sleep Training - Ferber Method - Night 3

3rd night intervals were: 5, 7, 9 minutes

Lillian missed her normal last afternoon nap, so it was a fight to keep her up until 8pm. My husband bathed her and fed her a bottle around 7:45 and she was sound asleep in bed by 8pm. No crying at all.

She stirred at 2:10 am but put herself back to sleep before we reached the end of the first interval. She never really cried, more like half awake, half asleep fussing.

4:00 am - She woke up. I went in after 6 minutes. I gave her, her pacifier and she fell back asleep.

6:00am - Woke up for the day.

So another big step forward. I'm hopefully we'll get a full night sleep sometime in the next week.

Oh my goodness, this is HUGE improvement and such positive news!!! I'm hopeful tonight is the night you get only 1 waking and by the end of the week it is full sleep. All three of you deserve it! :)
