Day 3

Nap Recap: Naps were give and take. About half of the day he went down really well - and the other half he cries for a while. He also still usually only sleeps for 30 minutes on average - and never falls back asleep - so I've just been moving him to his swing or bouncy seat for a 'rest' period afterwards. Two of his naps were while at the mall/in the car - those were great, and I think the correct amount of sleep helped him to go down good for his evening nap.

Bedtime: Not too bad - there are definite tears still but it's an on again, off again thing. He'll go down good for 15 minutes - then wake up and cry for a while, repeat for about an hour, then sleep. The last two nights he's woken up at 3am ... one night was because he was pooping, but I still fed him. Tonight (well, right now ... it's 3:30!) - he woke up and talked for a while, then that turned into crying so I got him up, fed him, and he went right back down. I'm tempted to try to add in the dreamfeed to see if this stops - but I just don't like the idea of waking him up only an hour or two after he just cried himself to sleep ... it seems risky. Thoughts on that?

Let's see if I can find a picture ... I feel like no post is complete without a picture :)
