Mr. Sandman

As abruptly as the waking and demanding to sleep with Mommy and Daddy problem began, it seemed to come to an end this past week. She slept five nights in a row without waking. I used a white noise machine playing "Summer Evening" sounds such as crickets and frogs each of those five nights. Maybe it's a coincidence? Last night, she woke at 1:10 but Webhamster and I stuck to our guns and kept putting her down each time she would stand in her crib. I gave her some water, changed her diaper, and put some teething gel on her. I lay on the loveseat in her nursery or stood next to her crib--not making eye contact--and gently rubbed her back. She was back asleep about 1:50. Let's hope the trend continues!
