Between travel, a seasonal cold or two, Stella's eating habits, and mostly a big soft spot for this little face, we created a nightmare. We were getting up at least once a night to pop her pacifier back in and at 5:00 for a little snack. Only sometimes would she go back to sleep after that snack. The preference is to climb all over us in bed. Trust me, I'm a MUCH better mother when I'm rested.
Night 1-- cried from 3:40-4:30 and woke up cheerful at 7:00.
Night 2-- fussed twice for 10 minutes and woke up chatting at 6:30.
Jason's been a little groggy at work, I take a morning nap, and our neighbors probably despise us. Although I hesitate to declare victory after two nights, it seems to be working.

You two are brave. And she is so cute!
Keep it up. I know how hard it is to hear them scream like that but it will be SO worth it if you stick with it. The sooner you get this over with, the better. T-rust me!!!
I know, it's so hard to hear them cry! Well worth it though!
I just stick to the motto you've already discovered, "I'm a much better mother when I'm rested." It makes me feel slightly less guilty for the ear plugs I wear now. Eek, I feel guilty admitting those...
