So, Bonnie decided to throw me a bone for a few nights. We had 3 nights in a row of one nightly wake-up - 10pm, 2am, 6am and then a sleep in until 8 - bliss!

Last night we went back a step again with 2 wake-ups, but I think that's perfectly normal for her age. I'm also happy that her amazing 3 nights just proved the early childhood nurse wrong - obviously she hadn't set her body clock to frequently wake for those 3 nights, it's just that for those 3 nights she didn't need her mama as much.

I'm slowly getting used to the fact that baby sleep (at least for Bonnie) is a see-saw instead of a steady line of progress. I'm sure we'll get a lot more crazy 2-hourly wake-up nights, as well as some great 4-hourly wake-ups - and maybe one-day an entire through the night.

I just have to learn to lie to people who ask me about Bonnie's sleep.
