Blah blah

[mellyboo]

I've been feeling majorly down lately.

It all started yesterday Jords is on her "no sleep kick lets wake you up a zillion times in the night" I pouted on FB and everyone told me to let her CIO I swear like 6 people said it... that all have babies, Honestly have nothing against it and i'll be sleep training her when she's a little older, she's only a little over 4 months old right now.

We co sleep BTW so she isn't used to sleeping anywhere but my bed everyone told me i was creating bad habits and etc for her blah blah.. when i no when Jords is ready or i feel remotely ready she will go in her room in her crib but we have to many sleep issue's to be across the hall right now.

Plus we are going away not this weekend but next and she will be sleeping in are bed in the hotel so why the heck confuse her right now... I might try putting her in her crib when we get back she isnt hard to get down for bed time its at 9pm everyday we have more fussing then others and if shes going to fuss its always when i tuck us in and shut off the lights, she knows its bed time and she hates sleep..

I'm having a hard hard time with her naps, I find she's getting more cranky lately because she cant nap well... and the crying is like non-stop when shes tired yesterday and today ive been putting her in her crib stroking her head until she falls asleep....

It makes me feel so bad that she will literally cry no matter what i do it makes me feel like such a frigging fail for naps.. maybe i've waited to long with this crib business i dont no plus everyone commenting on fb how I was so horrible for doing what we've been doing... made me feel even worse.

I felt a bit better when another friend told me how much of an amazing mother i am ( which i no i am)


I just needed to rant, its been kinda bugging me how i got so jumped at!

Rylee has been boycotting naps lately & screaming/crying hysterically for no reason at all, too. Must be common around 4 months. Hang in there!

My lo gets like this before some day naps it's an age thing I think. He's good at night. Don't let anybody make you feel crap! It's up to you what you decide to do your her mother!! X

it's probably the 4 month sleep regression, it can affect daytime naps too. Don't feel like a failure, and don't feel bad just because other people say you're doing things wrong. Everyone parents differently. The phrase "bad habit" imo is subjective, if you're ok with co-sleeping then its not a bad habit, it works for you and that's what counts! Ignore what everyone else may think, you can move Jordyn into her own bed when you're both ready, she may even make the transition on her own.

Babies cry, it's their only way of communicating with us, so again don't listen to the people who say to let her CIO. Some people fail to understand that their way isn't always the only way and like to make others feel bad if they don't go down the same route.

My LO used to sleep solidly for 12 hours from 8 weeks...well that went down the pan at 4 months, He now wakes every 2 hours if not before (just for a quick suckle on the boob) i'm shattered!!! everyone has said to do CIO, i've created a bad habit with feeding to sleep blah blah blah ...i'm not ready, i'm just hoping it's the regression and he'll "grow" out of it. He's tired 90% of the time because his naps are crap aswel unless he sleeps on me. Just to say hugs hun . I can't remember this with my other boys and apparently i'm spoiling this one because he's my last aaaaaaaaarrrrggggghhhhhhhhhhh!!!!! xxxxxxxxx
