Zzzzzz

It finally happened...Jackson slept through the night!

Our routine started out very normal. He took his 8:30 pm bottle from Daddy and was in bed by 9:30 pm. I was expecting him to wake up at 11:30 as usual (he typically wants to eat every 3 hours) but was pleasantly surprised when he slept an extra hour until 12:30 am. After that feeding, we were both back to bed at 1:15. He didn't wake up again until 6:30 this morning! 5 hours of uninterrupted sleep! (That is, if you don't count me getting up at 4:00 to make sure he was breathing.) It was glorious.

The question is: will he do it again tonight?

-------------------------------------------

Update: Night 2 was not quite as successful, but we are heading in the right direction. After finally going to bed at 11:00, Jack woke up once at 2:45 then again at 6:30. Not bad. Dare I say we are on the verge of a breakthrough?

Update: Night 3. We may have stumbled upon Jack's new schedule. Tonight was an exact repeat of last night. A 2 hour evening nap followed by bed at 11:00, up at 2:45 and up at 6:30. I can handle one middle of the night feeding, it's when there are more than one that it gets exhausting.
