Oh Ryn you poor love! Mads has given some sound advice, but to it I would add - just because a baby CAN doesn't mean they WILL!

I am LOL but serious! I remember Flynn once slept 7 hours at a stretch when he was about 4 mo and I don't think he did it again till he was over 8 months! And now, he eats something happily one day and then a week later won't have a bar of it.

And I'm not sure if others think this is true (I am of two minds) but a GF's mothercraft nurse-mum says "the more babies sleep, the more babies sleep", meaning quality day time naps makes it easier to get em to sleep at night. I don't know about you, but I know if I am BLOODY tired I am sometimes too tirede/wired to get to sleep and I actually feel kinda sick.

sending you heaps of sleepy baby vibes....
