We've been having some major sleep issues with baby G, *read* she does not sleep unless she is sleeping on top of (Amelia), up against (Dawn), or in between A and I. It's really getting old.
We've tried everything, her sleep sheep, music, dim lights, I've even laid down next to the crib and let her stroke my hair through the bars...that seems to be her thing, so whatever, and it all has seemed to work until we attempt to leave the room.
So our friends J and M suggested we feed her a snack at night. I thought we had certainly been feeding her enough so she wouldn't be interested...boy was I wrong...after her dinner...she had snack after snack after snack and the first night it helped.
So yesterday I implemented real food, I cooked up green beans, peas, edamame, bought frozen strawberries and blueberries and fed her those throughout the afternoon and evening and guess what...it worked but for just one night so far. Last night she was up four different times before I gave in and put her to bed with me at about 3:15 AM!!! Ughhh, I'm tired today but determined to figure this out. I think J and M hit it on the head with the feed her a snack thing so that I'll continue to do but until she sleeps...everyone think of me at 3 am...holding myself back from throwing myself off the roof.
All in all a darn good weekend.
