Last night Benjamin SLEPT THROUGH THE NIGHT! It's the first full night of sleep that Mark and I have both been able to share!
Woo hoo!! We woke up totally ecstatic!
Mark spent five days sleep training/night weaning Benjamin. The first few nights were pretty rough - I think a couple of hours of crying was involved each night. We decided Mark should do it, because Benjamin would get pretty upset at me for not nursing him when I went in. So I actually got a few nights of full night sleep before last night (with the aid of earplugs). Two nights ago, he got up once at 4:30, and Mark helped him back to sleep in 5 minutes. Then last night, he cried out around 12 am (I was asleep already, Mark was up), but settled himself back down.
We are so proud of our boy - and so very thankful for sleep!!
