But you've hit the nail on the head -- they do what they are going to do "when they are ready" and sometimes we help them along a little (i.e. if they have trouble later on past age 1 sleeping through the night) with a little "tough love" to let them cry a bit...<BR/><BR/>The thing is, which you don't know with a firstborn (we learn the hard way with the first one!) -- each new thing they learn, each new thing that happens (teeth, pulling themselves up, walking, speaking...) that takes a lot out of them and so there is a surge of "no sleeping" because there's too much brain activity, too much stimulation -- and then when everything has settled down they sleep from exhaustion. Which isn't a regular pattern but trust me, it does eventually happen!!<BR/><BR/>Hope she's feeling better and settled with less ear infections, colds, etc.<BR/><BR/>And yes...amen for coffee!!! ;)Sherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08271529958269038071noreply@blogger.com
