Tracey - Not long till your well deserved holiday, you must be very excited!
Cass - Hope all goes well with the family. I'll write below about our bedtime routines....
Rae - I'm v jealous of your good sleeper, can she please have a word to Lucie?
Hope everyone else is ok.
Well we are biting the bullet and doing CC with Lucie. I really think we haven't been left with much option, with #2 coming soon she really needs to be sleeping well before then. DH just doesn't wake, so if Lucie still carries on like this I will be even more zombified! Basically Cass I spoke to Tresillian today and they said you have to stop all sleep associations, like feeding to sleep. A big prob with Lucie cos it's the only time I can get her to take a bottle, so basically we are going with what the paed said and ditching them too. I don't think she will mind. In fact to be honest I really think milk makes her feel icky, cos as you all know she has never been a fan. Even if I mix it with her food I think she knows. So now I am trying to grate cheese into her meals instead of giving her milk. She'll drink water from a sippy cup, I just have to hope that's enough for her. So first session of CC this am she cried for 40 mins then fell asleep sitting up hands around the cot bars head against them too. Oh I felt like such a bad mummy. So I went in and just lay her down. She woke 40 mins later then cried for an hour before we got her up for lunch. Next session due anytime, but she's being as good as gold, she must know! In for a nightmare week I'm told, but really don't think I can do much else.
