Hi Nichole

I agree motherhood is so confusing - there are so many options!!!

I also agree with everything that Deb and Kelly said. Pinkys book is fantastic.

Joshua is now 12 months but at 4 months I had to go back to work out of necessity. I was still breast feeding and Joshua knew that mummy was home at night so to start with he would wake constantly. To counteract this I made sure I spent every minute I was at home afterwork and before work with Joshua and he stopped waking up to have "mummy time".

In addition we used to take the dummy out as soon as he was asleep. This helped to stop the waking during the night (although he will not go to sleep without it.

We didnt have the wrap issue as Joshua never liked sleeping on his back and hated to be wrapped while he slept even more.

All this things worked for us.

I guess the best advice I can give is try a couple of different things, What works for one mum wont work for another.

I am sure Liam will sleep through the night once he finds his own pattern

Goodluck with the new job

Love

Jen
