Twister - have you tried any kinda sleep training? We did Ferber with our LO and after one rough nights, things improved significantly. Your LO is old enough to do sleep training now and they key is being consistent whatever method you chose and you need your hubby's help. I don't know if you're against sleep training or not but in my experience babies tend to cry less in the end coz they sleep better and moms are happier too.
Seaweed - Sofia started sleeping through once she figured out how to sleep on her tummy. She also dropped her night feeds around the same time (she was just a day over 6 months). Like I was telling Twister above CC works if you're consistent. I personally liked Ferber because of his interval checks (we did 1min, 3 mins, 5 mins and then 10 mins....we never had to go over 10 mins she always fell asleep and it took 2 nights).
I have an interview tomorrow and feeling the sleep anxiety kicking in. I haven't taken an Ativan in over a week and Sofia has slept through the last 3 nights but I will still take one tonight. I need to be well rested for this.
