Sleep deprivation

5 weeks in (23rd) and I have finally had a little bit of sleep.

Last night baby K slept for 3 hours with an hour and a half break then another 3 hours!!

That may sound very sad but iv never been so happy (apart from him arriving of course) The previous night (22nd) had me in tears. Baby woke up at 1:30am and just would not go back to bed.

I had to seek help from mum at 7:30am who made him sleep at 8:45 for all of 15mins LOL. He then went to sleep at 10am phew! Still this was ridiculous.

 Last night we bathed him, gave a little massage, fed him and put him to bed. He seemed to like this.- I wont hold my breath thinking things will always happen like this.

24th November It happen again! 6 hours of sleep!! He slept for 3 hours at a time during the night.
I was so pleased.

DIY smash cake

Image
My sons first birthday came a long and i wanted pictures to create memories of course. I had seen smash cake photographers for around £150 plus which i thought was a bit crazy for a few pictures and a cake he would be smashing. i think my pictures turned out pretty ok before editing. What i needed.... balloons, party banners, lights, cake, cake stand, camera and lights. I baked the cake as i bake- you can bake a cake from a packet if baking isnt your thing. I already had a camera and camera lights but expensive things are not 100% necessary. A decent lit room and a phone with a good camera ie iPhone 8 will do the job nicely. everything costed around £10.   He was not very keen at first Even at his age he hates messy hands!! Was pleased with how it ended  xx

Ferber method on 10 month old

Image
We are currently on day three of the sleep training which is killing me. I am only looking at night sleep as i feel there will be far too much crying trying to include naps also. He is a consistent night waker wanting a cuddle or boob. Night one- Baby went down at 11:00 where the crying began all the way up until 00:29, where he finally fell asleep. We started out leaving him for 5mins, 7mins, then every 10mins. I feel as though the checking on him makes him cry 10 times harder but i feel even more guilt if i let him cry for longer. so what do i do? Anyway, after he fell asleep he woke up at 8:17, which was unbelievable for him. You would think at 10months he would be sleeping longer stretches but no. I am working on a routine at the minute and trying to get him to bed earlier but if his second nap is late it messes things up. I'll be back for night two! xx
