Ok Friday night first, late in putting this down, so is now a bit hazy
Dh is home this night. Had to go and pick him up half way through her afternoon nap.
6.00 Dinner together - ate ok
6.15 Quiet play whilst I got shower stuff ready
6.30 Shower - yawns
6.45 In bedroom! Peace Baby playing. dry off, no massage, just vicks for blocked nose. latches on whilst I am trying to dress her, so straight to BF
7.15 Sit down on bed, only lamp on, Read special night time books
7.10 Music still playing - Place her in cot with teddies, she plays with them a bit. I go up to her when she stands at the side of the cot, she pulls my top and tries to get at my breasts same as night before, bouncing between feeds and cot. Finally feed to sleep.
8.00 Asleep!
9.00 Awake - feed back to sleep
10.00 Awake - bring to bed and feed to sleep.
Notes: Am still really struggling with how to calm her for sleep, the reading does not seem to do enough. Also if I try to leave her on the bed with me, she just crawls, so I am constantly picking her up and moving her somewhere safe. I think this is stimulating her way to much.
I have no idea on how to introduce a comfort item, she just throws everything away (except for the remote).
