Hi Guys,

Hope you are all well.

Well, the tips they gave me were hard to stick to and still are. I guess it depends on your baby but the big thing they tell you is you should let your baby get from one sleep cycle to the next, at least give them 5 minutes then go in and help them on and off and use the dummy as a last resort. For me I can now put Katerina down for her sleeps during the day in her cot and she will winge but go off to sleep for about 30 minutes but needs lots of help to move onto the next cycle. In the end I have to use the dummy. In the night she just naturally goes from one cycle to the next so I have no Idea why in the daytime she cant make that transition. I was told she is too alert and a very very tough and intense baby. I am glad that the nurses thought so as I though I was the mad one. hehhahah.

In the beginning I had to endure a lot of crying but I gave it a go as it was my last hope and I am glad I did as now Katerina is relaxed and does not cry at the top of her lungs like she used to. It is hard ladies but if it is your last hope what can you do.

I guess all babies are different and mine needs lots of pushing to get to that stage.
