My grandson Darius tries that with me, but after about 5 min, max, crying, he is sound asleep. I admit I laid down with Olivia, but that started when I had Mono and was sleeping more than I was awake so it made sense to bring her to bed with me. Yes, the Mono did last a long time with me. A full year before I was back up and running so Olivia was used to my laying down with her by then.gramma2manyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01478900677710841579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4441309827489593160.post-85183705405155484982010-04-29T18:54:22.010-05:002010-04-29T18:54:22.010-05:00Yaya liked to be bounced to sleep on our knees whe...Yaya liked to be bounced to sleep on our knees when she was little. How about a swing? <br /><br />I'm feeling your pain. It's horrible to hear your baby cry. You want to comfort them but you also don't want to encourage bad habbits. Hang in there and we'll be sending prayers your way.Frizzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15150850904947257133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4441309827489593160.post-60740961064544186382010-04-28T12:44:31.715-05:002010-04-28T12:44:31.715-05:00My baby doesn't nap!!!

My 3rd child (5 year old) never napped, so this time, I'm a little more patient with it. <br /><br />Nights are worse, the girls share a room, so Bridget is in with us, I can't let her cry because she will wake up Tom (hubby) so I get her up and feed her, well, many nights this happens every hour or so!!! Most nights it is every 2 hours....she's 8 months old, how long will this last?<br /><br />It's hard, does it help to know I'm right there with you?Jamie Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17678469484585027738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4441309827489593160.post-6880835761165972292010-04-28T12:23:18.775-05:002010-04-28T12:23:18.775-05:00At lease your baby girl takes a nuk.

I think it is totally normal for her. Just do what you have to do.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11713312386803561115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4441309827489593160.post-8987162735746897932010-04-28T02:38:25.489-05:002010-04-28T02:38:25.489-05:00Hi Therese,
