Cry baby - Day 3

Night 3 of our controlled crying experiment was far more successful. Aimee fed well at 7.30pm and Cat put her down in the cot around 8.20pm. A short spell of fussing and crying and she fell asleep by 8.40pm and calm silence pretty much all night. Apart from a brief spell of fussiness at 2.30am when Cat decided to feed her and Aimee’s gums must have played up as a result. But it was very brief and she fell back to sleep until 7am. So not bad really. If it weren’t for poor Aimee’s teething pains, I’m pretty sure she would sleep ever better, but we can’t complain. This is so much better than last week, where Cat would have to feed her to sleep practically every hour in the night.This morning, Aimee was alert but very distracted with her gums. I placed a cooled teething dummy into her mouth and she chewed on it with gusto. In fact she was smiling as she was chewing which makes a slightly odd face. But other than that, she seemed fine and dandy.
