Well, I am trying to see if Cameron can sleep through the night. We made a change in his bottles and he's eating a lot more during the day at daycare. This week we had one night with a 3am feeding and one night he slept through. Last night I was up with him again around 1:30. I got him back to sleep without a bottle. He cried a bit when I left the room. He stayed calm if I sat in a chair by his crib so I did that until he fell off asleep to some lullaby music. Even this second time around I find that I am trying to feel out how to best navigate this transition. Of course with Caleb trying to sleep in the other room, if we can minimize the full blown crying, that would be best.
Wanted to update that the day after my last post I felt much better. I had my day of mourning and the next day dawned bright and new.
We've had a nice cool front come through recently and so last night we enjoyed a nice long walk in the evening with Caleb riding his bicycle. With Cameron eating better during the day at daycare, he's happier and not needing to eat quite as much in the evening. It's nice getting a little bit of time back in between "dinner" and "bedtime" snack for him. We can use it to pop out to a store, go for a walk or just give him some playtime.
Cameron is sitting up really well and is creeping around now. We have to watch carefully he doesn't explore the gliding ottoman or bump his head on the wood table. And no paper is safe near him. I let him tear up and crumple an ad one Sunday and since then he's eager to play with paper. Thank goodness for a crinkly book.
Well I guess that's about it. Still just tired and hopeful that soon we'll achieve full night's of sleep.
Hope everyone is doing well.
