Dear Fellow Babies,
OK, here’s my situation. My Mummy has had me for almost 5 months. The
first few months were great – I cried, she picked me up and fed me,
anytime, around the clock. Then something happened. Over the last few
weeks, she has been trying to STTN (sleep thru the night). At first, I
thought it was just a phase, but it is only getting worse.
I’ve talked to other babies, and it seems like its pretty common after
Mummies have had us for around 5-6 months. Here’s the thing: these
Mummies don’t really need to sleep. It’s just a habit. Many of them
have had some 30 years to sleep – they just don’t need it anymore. So
I am implementing a plan. I call it the Crybaby Shuffle.
It goes like this:
Night 1 – cry every 3 hours until you get fed. I know, it’s hard. It’s
hard to see your Mummy upset over your crying. Just keep reminding
yourself, it’s for her own good.
Night 2 – cry every 2 hours until you get fed.
Night 3 – every hour.
Most Mummies will start to respond more quickly after about 3 nights.
Some Mummies are more alert, and may resist the change longer. These
Mummies may stand in your doorway for hours, shhhh-ing. Don’t give in.
I cannot stress this enough: CONSISTENCY IS KEY!! If you let her STTN
(sleep through the night), just once, she will expect it every night.
I know it’s hard! But she really does not need the sleep; she is just
resisting the change.. If you have an especially alert Mommy, you can
stop crying for about 10 minutes, just long enough for her to go back
to bed and start to fall asleep. Then cry again. It WILL eventually
work. My Mommy once stayed awake for 10 hours straight, so I know she
can do it.
The other night, I cried every hour. You just have to decide to stick
to it and just go for it. BE CONSISTENT! I cried for any reason I
could come up with:
-My sleep sack tickled my foot.
-I felt a wrinkle under the sheet.
-My mobile made a shadow on the wall.
-I burped, and it tasted like rice cereal. I hadn’t eaten rice cereal
since breakfast, what’s up with that?
-The dog said “ruff”. I should know. My Mommy reminds me of this about
20 times a day. LOL.
-Once I cried just because I liked how it sounded when it echoed on
the monitor in the other room.
-Too hot, too cold, just right – doesn’t matter! Keep crying!!
-I had drooled so much my sheets were damp and I didn’t like it touching me.
-I decided I was sick of all the pink in my room so I cried.
It took awhile, but it worked. She fed me at 4am. Tomorrow night, my
goal is 3:30am. You need to slowly shorten the interval between
feedings in order to reset your Mommies’ internal clocks.
Sometimes my Mommy will call for reinforcements by sending in Daddy.
Don’t worry Daddies are not set up for not needing sleep the way
Mommies are. They can only handle a few pats and shhing before they
declare defeat and send in the Mommy.
Also, be wary of the sleep sheep with rain noises. I like to give
Mommy false hope that listening to the rain puts me to sleep sometimes
I pretend to close my eyes and be asleep and then wait until I know
Mommy is settling back to sleep to spring a surprise cry attack. If
she doesn’t get to me fast enough I follow up with my fake cough and
gag noise that always has her running to the crib. At some point I am
positive she will start to realize that she really doesn’t really need
sleep.
P.S. Don’t let those rubber things fool you, no matter how long you
suck on them, no milk will come out.
Trust me.
Sincerely
Bub
