Sleep Training!

5/6/11
I really hate calling it sleep training. Josie is not a puppy! lol. Every night after Josie takes her last bottle we put her in her swing and she goes straight to sleep, then we carry her upstairs to her crib. We never have a problem with her going to sleep...as long as she is in her swing. So, I got to thinking the other day, what happens when she is too big for her swing? So we decided to start doing what they call "sleep training". It's where you put the baby in the crib at night to sleep instead of her usual spot.

So I put her in her crib awake. I was expecting her to cry or at least whine, but I turned on her mobile and she just jabbered at it. I came down stairs and plugged in the monitor and she was completely quiet. All I could hear was the music from her mobile. So I went back up to check on her, because surely she should be a little upset. But when I got up there she was fast asleep. Granted, her butt was in the air, one arm was behind her back and the other was behind her head.... but she was asleep! I readjusted her onto her back and she just sighed and kept on sleeping. I can't believe that this went so smoothly!!!!!!

I love my baby girl!!!!!
