DD went to sleep for first time on her own ... so proud

[Slave2Babe]

after just over an hour of cuddling and putting her on her back when she stood up at the bars, dd has finally gone off to sleep ... had to stroke her tummy and calm her but eventually she rolled on to her side and slipped into (what i hope is) a deep sleep ... so proud of her

Well done you!
It really is an achievement and a small victory.
Did you hear of this technique from the baby whisperer or some thing similar, it sounds like the pick up put down technique thats all.

DEFFO BRILL

yeah it was pick up put down ... well it was more move dd from the bars and lie down ...

tried it before but she would always get really worked up when i lay her down ... was pretty painless tonight

fab picture BTW, she is a cutey.

thanks ... i know it sounds silly but i am just so happy with her ...

Not silly at all!
Is she your only one?

yep

Ah, how many times have you popped your head round to check on her...or watch her sleep?!

hahaha ... rumbled!

i know where all the squeaky floor boards are now - after 7.5 months! - so havent disturbed her

Hehehe!
My ds is 2 next month and we still go into his room and just gaze at him sleeping, smiling at each other like morons complimenting each other on how clever we are making such a gorgeous scrumptious little chap.
I cant settle down until i have checked him and kissed him.
Its lovely isnt it, bieng a mum. (gush,gush,gush!)
