Finally! More sleep for baby and parents

I really wish the subject was - "slept through the night after 2 whole months" however I'm not going to push my luck!  Mason slept from 10:30 until 1:30, I b-fed him and put him back to bed.  He slept another 2hours (uninterrupted) and fussed at 3:30am however I did not take him out of his crib, I simply rubbed lotion over his itchy head, legs, arm and tummy and he went back to sleep!!!!  Hmm there is something miss here..a time.   From whta I can remember, I fed him once and I tucked him in twice and then he got up at 6:00am.

Waking every two hours isn't really what we call 'great sleeping' but it IS an improvement from him waking up every hour (sometimes twice) and to date, I've never been able to calm him down without taking him out of the crib and feeding him.  I think what has changed is the warm weather which has definately tapered off.  Little man can't handle the heat and we are pretty sure it's what is causing his flare-ups.  Right now the rash is mostly gone and hopefully stays that way.  If we can minimize his itching/scratching, I think he'll eventually sleep through the night again.  Might not even need a sleep consultant (which has been put on hold due to finances).

I'm crossing my fingers that we get a full night sleep in the near future!
