Sleeping Update 1

So last night we put him to bed around 8:15pm. He fell asleep while nursing, so there was no crying. He woke up at 11:00pm and cried for a couple of minutes. Then he didn't wake up until 4:30am! At that time, I went and reswaddled him and patted his butt until he fell asleep. (Since it was his first night without eating, I wanted to give him a little extra comfort.) He woke up again at 6:25am, and I fed him then. Then I put him back down and we woke up again at 8am.

Yea! I'm pleased with this progress, and really amazed that he actually does need to just cry for a few minutes. It was never terribly hard to get him to go to sleep. But I think that us bouncing him until his eyes were drooping was only helping him fall asleep, even if he was technically still awake when we laid him down. And I think that's why he woke up so often during the night--he just didn't know how to make himself go back to sleep. So that's what we're trying to remedy.

He's taking his second nap of the day now. He's cried for about 10 minutes each time before falling asleep.

It sounds like you're creating problems yourself by trying to solve this issue instead of looking at why their is a problem in the first place.
