Enabler
I am an enabler. Actually, I think I'm quite strong, but I've always had a soft spot for sleeping. Madeline didn't sleep through the night until she was almost 9 months old. She would wake up in the middle of the night, and I fed her, so she woke up every night for her 2 am snack. Then for about a year and a half, we were really strong, and she slept very well. Sometime around her 2nd birthday we started staying in Madeline's room until she fell asleep. For 7 months we said it was just a temporary thing, that we would stop. Finally we decided enough is enough, so now I'm listening to my sweet angel cry her eyes out, praying she cries herself to sleep quickly.

Poor girl! Stay strong...you can do it. Love you both! Good Luck!
Oh, I have been there. Eliza still doesn't sleep through the night. We're working on it right now. Hope it gets better for you!! ~Tatem
Remember when she came and got me and said I don't think they are coming to get me. She was fine! Be Strong!
B - Madeline still talks about that night. She tells me at least once a week, "I cried, and I said MOMMY!, and Breck came, and she didn't have the key, and she knocked on your door, but you were busy sleeping, and I cried, but it was ok, I'm a big girl." She's only 2, surely she'll forget that soon!
Oh I feel so much better! Wesley is back in the bed, ha. And snacking at 3 am. Anyway, good luck, we are trying again next week after we move.
Too funny! See she admits she was a big girl. Who knew that line about the key she would actually remember, kids!
