Night #1 is a success!
Soooooo I was very nervous about Jacob waking up last night in fear that he would scream bloody murder for me to pick him up and nurse him. 11:45pm rolls around and I hear Jacob through the monitor and he's moaning and doing mini baby cries. I wait for him to full blown cry and I go in there. Jacob, for whatever reason, scooches himself to the top of his crib and he feels trapped. I moved him back down to the middle of the crib, patted his perfectly round diaper bootie, and shhhhhhshhhh'd him back to sleep. With victory in the bag I was able to crawl back in to bed and rest peacefully until I I hear the moans and groans start again. In fear that it has only been an hour, I look at the clock and it was 3:30am! I was elated to say the least. I waited for him to cry and I went in there, picked up my doodle and nurse him back to sleep. Yes! I have conquered two awakenings with no melt down. He finally woke up for good at 6:30am. I feel rested and relieved. I'm not going to get my hopes up that this is the trend he's going to follow but even one night of good sleep was worth it.
