I realize that we have a new sleep solution every few days - but that's because they only last a few days each! Lol! We are still playing baby jenga with stacks of pillows and blankets - but sleeping through the night only lasted that one time (10pm to 6am) - but boy was it amazing! I still get teary eyed thinking about that! Callie has been falling asleep around 9-10pm and waking around 2am for a feed, then again at 6-7am. Our latest sleep solution doesn't extend her sleep times, but it definitely saves our arms and backs from exhaustion! Presenting... The munchkin sound machine! We actually just use the projector on this bad boy - which was given to us by Mike's cousin Sam. Callie will stare at it while drowsy and put herself to sleep! No need for mommy and daddy to bounce on a yoga ball for an hour and walking on eggshells perfecting our transfer technique in getting her down on her bed! Woot woot! We also blast the white noise from a iPhone app called Relax.. It's the only white noise that Callie responds to (so funny how she's particular like that!
Kind of cracks me up how our nights have changed post-baby. Mike and I sit in the dark with earplugs on in a room that sounds like a thunderstorm texting each other in the same room if we need communicate, TV is on silent with captions (if on at all), and no more bedtime cuddling now that Callie's in bed with us - all of this starts at 8:30pm! And if either one of us coughs-you can expect some death stares coming your way! No waking baby!! That's our number one priority! Lol!
