Hi Girls,

Well it's all been very quiet in here....most unusual!

I'm feeling alot better this week as I have started dreamfeeding Lewis. He now sleeps from 7pm until 4am with a dreamfeed at 10.30pm. He will then have another hour or two afterwards until about 6/7am! I feel like a different woman! Last night was the 3rd night, so I hope this is it now and I"m not jinxing things by telling you all about it!

The next thing I want to conquer is the self settling as I think he may sleep longer in the day if he can put himself to sleep when he wakes up after 30 minutes. I'm going to try the patting thing rather than the leave to cry thing, as to be honest he doesn't actually cry when he can't sleep, he just whinges away!

The only thing is though, he will self settle if he has a dummy in, but that defeats the object as he can't put that back in himself when he wakes up, so I suppose I have to start trying to get him to sleep without it. Has anyone else done this?

We haven't heard from a few girls lately: Celsie, Naomi, PrincessMya MeegM and Mum2cheeky girl. Hope everyone is well and just enjoying motherhood!
