I'm pretty sure I need a friend as awesome as you are. You ALWAYS make me feel better, and you always make me laugh. People act like it's outrageous that I sleep with Ronan, but you are TOTALLY right, I absolutely cherish the cuddles. And he wakes up SO happy. I wouldn't trade it for the world. I'm lucky... we have a king sized bed... Brock insisted when we were shopping and I'm glad I gave in. You will LOVE it! Thanks again. <3 Holly… can you please move somewhere closer to me?

Kai will be 4 in May and STILL comes to our bed 96% of the time at some point during the night. (We even moved out room upstairs and he still finds us!) I thought he came to breast feed but we cut that out almost a year ago and he continues to come. Luckily, he barely wakes me up and I cherish the cuddle time. Scott on the other hand usually has to deal with his kicking feet while I get hugs and kisses ;) Our solution: currently Scott is building a King size bed You said it makes you feel better so I will say it again …

I promise you that! You got lucky... and I know you know how hard it is when something happens and she STOPS sleeping through without waking. We're okay with Ronan's sleep, now that he doesn't scream at night. I can deal with the wake ups, I just couldn't deal with knowing something was wrong, and being unable to figure out what it is. We're in bed for 12 hours a night, now... if not sleeping the whole time. That's okay with me. :) Oh Kristie… you are an amazing parent for FAR more than just her sleeping habits. I promise you that!

I do not think I'm an amazing parent tho, and I do not lie about how much sleep she gets either. Why would I? She sleeps 12hrs a night, plain and simple. Nothing else to it. I hope you and Ronan can get his sleep issues dealt with soon :) .-= Kristie´s last blog ..<a href="http://kristielarsen.blogspot.com/2010/02/sweet-baby-g.html" rel="nofollow">Sweet Baby "G"</a> =-.

But kids also will start not sleeping fr certain reasons. teething, growth spirt whatever. but i did learn that a child will start waking up when they go through a faze or a change. I you pay really close attention like for example leland started waking up the night for a few weeks and i tied everything to change it and nothing worked then he started walking and after he started he started sleeping normally again it was weird.

I totally had to re-read my post and make sure I didn't say anything horrific. Because you KNOW I love you, and you know that I don't think you are awful for anything you've done with your girls. I think you are an amazing mom BECAUSE you are an AMAZING MOM, not just cause you have amazing sleeping babies. I'm super sorry if it came across as judging you or any other mommy that has. I didn't mean it like that. :/ You are not bad, and I'm am terribly jealous of your sleep. And this is the most amazing line ever: "but i also know that loving a baby in the middle of the night isn’t the worst thing that a mommy could do." Sorry I came across more bitchy than I meant to. My bad. :( Woah. I totally had to re-read my post and make sure I didn’t say anything horrific.

Our daughter was a fantastic sleeper for the first few months. Lately, she's been a terrible sleeper. Nothing has changed about our parenting.
