Sofia woke up at 6.45am crying (tears). I wonder if she didn’t quite catch that I carried her back into her room.
Mike took Pablo for a walk whilst Sofia and I had breakfast. Then Sofia and I went to the park to meet up with a couple of the girls from mothers group. It was very nice. The babies got to crawl/walk and chew on each other’s toys and we got to talk. So nice to have someone to talk to :). One if the girls had to go home, so the ones who were left decided to go for a long walk. Sofia fell asleep within minutes, but only slept for 30min – she seemed happy though. Then we went home and I have her lunch and then a short play before trying to get her down for her second nap.
Once again I tried the cry out method, but she got quiet after the third time… Then I heard some banging after awhile (30 min) so I went in to check and there she was sitting in the corner of the bed (away from the camera) – banging into the railing… So I caved and stroke her back till she fell asleep – BUT I did not stay long enough after she’d fallen asleep because she woke up after 5minutes. Now all hell was loose and she flat out refused to sleep. I ended up putting on the boob to at least get a little bit of slept out of her today.
When she woke up about an hour later it was 4.30pm and almost time for dinner. We facetime’d with ‘Mormor’ – it was so nice! Sofia really lit up as well and got very talkative :). Then it was time for dinner and a short play with daddy as well, who got home at that stage. Finally it was time for the nighttime routine. We did the cry out method and it took awhile. She got quiet but then cried a bit weak and started this scary coughing thing that scared Mike and I. It was nothing however and after Mike put her back down it didn’t take too long before she’d put herself to sleep. Hopefully she’ll stay asleep for awhile to night. Both Mike and I could do with a bit more sleep.
