after a bloody awful night with dd waking at 12.30, stayiny awake till 4.30 at least then playing up all day, we went to watts (baby shop in m'bro) to buy a gro bag. everyone gos on about them and had mothercare version when she was small so decided to give it a go.
picked the prettiest in her size and let her take it out of packaging and play with it down stairs at tea time.
come to bed time, shes sat on floor watching balamory and i lay her onto it to put on..............oh my god....crying isnt in it, take her upstairs to calm her down, but still pulling at it and saying 'out'.
wouldnt have any bottle and eventually got her into bed by making small gradual movements so as not to wake her!!!
crept down stairs and didnt hold out much hope for a quiet night as she likes to kick about so went to bed early incase of another nightmare night.
next thing i know its 6.15AM!!!!!!!!! she had over 10 hours constant settled sleep!
oh what a wonderous invention!!!!!!!!!
hope she does same tonight and forever! as d.test in morn and could do with a clear head!!
to anyone having probs with toddlers sleeping (mine 18 months) try a grow bag!!
saying that i might be back tomorrow in tears from lack of sleep and lack of licence
