Things seem to be progressing with sleep training Lucas again. Here's what things have looked like since we started.
Friday-Night 1: He cried and screamed bloody murder for an hour. This was really hard for us to listen to. He tried to cry for me, Lance, his paci, and his puppy. When I went back in the last time he decided to stay in bed and go to sleep. I think he wore himself out. He woke up 3 times that night and was up for good at 7:00.
Saturday-Night 2: He cried, screamed, and followed me to the door when I left the first time. After going back in twice he decided to go to sleep. He was asleep by 8:30! He woke up 3 times that night and was up for good at 7:15.
Sunday-Night 3: He whined for me to stay and followed me to the door. He whined on and off until it was time for me to go back in and put him back in bed. He slept all night and woke up at 7:30
Monday- Night 4: Basically the same as Sunday night
Today-Nap 5: He whined as I left but did not follow me to the door. He stayed in bed and went to sleep!
I feel like since we've been doing this sleep training, he's starting to know who's boss again. He had been contorting us in the evenings and I'm so glad it's starting to get back to the way it should be. He's been a happier boy the last 2 days, now that he's getting the sleep he needs! Which of course makes me happier too!
