Babies and Children who like sleep

[sahbear]

I know the feeling! I have been blessed by a wonderful sleeper!

My common comment to people when asked is "he loves his sleep even more than his Mumma, thank goodness!" (and this Mumma loves her sleep!)

I have a close mothers group, and they all know how he is in this regard.
I am often cautious with what i say when the girls are having a vent about their bad nights, unfortunately for a few of them, 2 years on they are still having difficult nights.

It's a difficult one, especially in the early days when I wanted to contribute to conversation, but it was regularly about sleep, and I felt guilty that I got lucky.

Outside of my mothers group, when asked - I was often told my "good" sleeping baby, wouldnt last and enjoy it while it lasts, thank goodness 2 years on, it has lasted!

Can I just say that as a mother of 4 crappy sleepers (and all 4 are still crap to get to sleep and none sleep through) that if anyone feels anything bad towards you for having a "good" sleeper then its their issue and don't take it as something you have done wrong to them

I have no ill feelings towards anyone who has a "good" sleeper, honestly, after this many years of sleep deprivation I don't sleep through the night myself any more! LOL

Be proud of your babies, and don't hide what they can do - its awesome!
