Sleepy baby
So I have started trying to keep a sleep log for Grace as suggested by ‘Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child‘. This also includes putting Grace down for a nap every two hours, which thus far, Grace has cooperated with. I think part of this is that she gets to use her travel bed, which she loves to sleep in (she’ll sleep from 10:30 pm-6:30 am in the travel bed, but in her cradle at home she’s a 10:30-4:30 am kind of sleeper). We’ll see how this goes; maybe our Grace wants to take more naps. She’s also sleeping a lot better now that the doctor told me that sometimes babies with reflux just sleep better on their tummies. Unfortunate from a SIDS perspective, but from a getting the sleep she needs perspective, night time is a *LOT* easier now. When I forced her to sleep on her back, she just wailed– on her tummy she settles and sleeps within 5 minutes.
I must admit that the bar graph looks kind of funny… I need to figure out a better way to represent this information… And I’m really looking forward to the sleep from 7 pm-7 am thing…
