Don't mean to be the bearer of bad news but brace yourself as you may be in for a shocking week. We took our little man back to UK and Ireland when he was six months returning when he was just over seven. It was really wierd as he didn't seem to suffer from jet lag on the way there but had a shocking time when we got back here. We found that for the first few days that once he woke in the middle of the night he just wouldnt go back to sleep. I just go up and let him play and pyut him back down when he showed tired signs. During the day i tried to keep to his normal routine of when to put him down and he seemed to do those sleeps also. It was rough going but after a week he was staying asleep for longer and could be resettled if he woke.
How did she go sleep wise in UK. My little guy has a shocker waking and feeding anything between 2-6 times a night for the month. I think this might be why it took a little while for the good night sleeping to sort itself out in our case.
She slept like a champ in the UK, wasn't jet lagged at all and slept better than she ever has here. Today I have gotten her out and about and woken her from naps to ensure that she isn't turning day into night. We'll see how we go. I am well prepared and aware that things might be a shocker for a while - I don't sleep much at the moment anyway and don't seem to be suffering from jet lag either which is weird so it's not me I'm worried about.
The poor wee sausage has huge bags under her eyes and hasn't had her usual proper long sleep since sunday night - hope she gets some tonight!
