The Sleep Chronicles - Success??

Yeah, I wish. Yesterday was good during the day. Willow took two, one-hour naps, just like I was hoping. But, unfortunately she was very tired when 7:00 rolled around, so we only stayed up an extra five minutes before getting ready for bed. She had her bottle and passed out again.

Then, this morning, she actually woke up after 9 hours 20 minutes sleep!!

Today Willow wasn't having daytime napping. She took two 35 minute naps. I would have tried to keep her up but she was crying and very cranky. So, when bedtime came around we actually ended up going up ten minutes early. She promptly passed out again right after her bottle.

I have a really good feeling that she is cutting a tooth. I felt her gums and noticed that the bottom right side is puffed up more then the left. She has been slightly warm and has the sniffles, which started yesterday. We gave her some Motrin this afternoon since she seemed achy and she was in a little better mood afterwards. We are prepped to give it to her again if she wakes up tonight.

Looking back at her sleep patterns, she is sleeping an average of 36 minutes less this month than last month and her total sleep has been getting less and less over the past 4 months or so. What does it mean? I have no idea...

Here's hoping that she sleeps in until, I don't know, 6:00am? That would rock.
