.problem solved.

I seldom write about my parenting questions, problems, techniques and whatnot but had an interesting break through this week I thought was worth sharing with whomever reads my blog…
Sleep. Brody is a decent sleeper. He wasn’t great at first but Brian and I put our heads together, read a few books and worked to teach him how to sleep. If you want more information on my thoughts on this feel free to email me. I’d love to share.

This last week he was waking up twice a night which was totally out of the norm. He wasn’t teething (he just cut 4 top teeth prior), he wasn’t sick, not hungry…what was causing the wake up??!! When we would go and comfort him he didn’t want to be put down, again totally out of the norm for Brody.

Brian was with him one night and felt that the temp was a little low in his room. So the following night we put a little heater (ok spare your safetly comments..everything was done safely.) and we warmed his room. Two nights in a row…back to the norm…all night long.

Go Brian. Way to trouble shoot. Brodster was just a little cold.


i do want to thank my real BFF Stephanie...(refer to last friday's post for my not so real BFF..) for doing lots of research to why Brody may be waking up. I guess this goes prove that sometimes you can research and research and research but the cause and solution is not always to be found on paper but in your instincts.
