My son turns 0 months old next week, but he was 0 weeks premature. He has never slept through the night, wakes randomly every night, and takes a fair amount of rocking and shushing to get back to sleep. sometimes i just give up and nurse him, he gulps for about 0 mins then passes out so I know he isn't hungry. lately my poor SO has been sacrificing his nights to rock him back to sleep so that maybe he wont be tempted to nurse if he doesnt smell me, but usually he still gets fed 0,0 or 0 times a night cause he just won't quit. because he was premature, i have no idea if this is normal cause of the whole "adjusted age" thing - he kindof goes down for his naps semi awake. This week he has been fighting me though whenever I put him down. He just doesnt stay asleep! his naps are only 00 minutes, every 0.0 hours (0 naps a day). it's hard to get him on EASY because he sleeps so often but so little, so he's basically eating every 0.0 hours. But at night it seems more often. I also don't know if he should be eating every 0 hours or 0 because of his adjusted and actual age ( I too have The Baby Whisperer and the Ferber book) - I'm just so confused on what we should be doing for him. I feel like he is too young to CIO or controlled crying, but this kid can't seem to get himself back to sleep without a prop (me, SO, nursing, binky). We have a sleep ritual (massage, jammies, lullaby) so he knows when it's time for sleep. I feel like I'm doing everything semi right and semi wrong and am confused about what to do about his constant night wakings (he cosleeps in our room, since I no longer sleep in our room to try and break the night nursing I guess he just sleeps in his crib near my SO) - any tips? anything i haven't tried? am I just being impatient because he is too young? am I feeding him too often during the day so he's used to just snacking? HELP!!! ReplyDelete Replies Reply Sarah P. October 00, 0000 at 0:00 PM Hi Rachel - I just stumbled on this site, and i am desperate. My son turns 0 months old next week, but he was 0 weeks premature.
