And so here we are again. I'm a little late on this one as i've been meaning to write it up for a while but kept forgetting to upload the pictures of her so now we're at the 21 week mark, 5 MONTHS OLD! Wow.
The little baby girl we bought home 5 months ago is slowly growing into a little person, a proper little girl with a huge set of lungs! We've tried to make a few changes this last month and if you've seen my updates on Twitter, we're very tired because of it... We used to give Millie a dummy. Not all the time, just to go to sleep with. Once she was in a deep enough sleep, she'd spit it out but then at night, she'd wake up crying for it realising it was no longer in her mouth. We'd have to get up and give it her 3/4 times a night and the one night she woke over 10 times for it and I just had enough so, from then on, we took away the dummy and tried Timed Comforting (I will explain this a little more in another post). It was hard and took a few days to break but once we did, it worked. For a while. We're now back to square one and feels like she's a newborn again. Waking 2/3 times a night crying and sometimes won't settle. It's really starting to take its toll so we hope it's just a phase and she'll get back into a good sleeping routine soon!
Other than this...
That's pretty much it for major changes. Stay tuned as i'm going to be popping up a 'Dummy vs. No Dummy' post and would love to hear your opinions on it!
Aw wow she's getting so big! Good luck with the new changes!!

Aw she is so cute! Sienna used to do this with her dummy and I debated taking it away from her but since then she's been sleeping better than ever! Weird!
