Braylon has always been a really good sleeper. She was sleeping through the night when he was around four weeks old and he has always been a great napper. Normally, he takes three one hour naps and one three hour nap! I know, I know I am very lucky! The past few days he has been doing something even better. I am thinking it is a mix between him and me. I have finally started a bed time routine. I know its a little late. We have always had a small routine but I have started to bathe him every night and do a massage on him. I am thinking the relaxing before bed his helping him. And I think him being older and weighing more is allowing him to sleep longer. He goes to bed at 10pm and wakes at 4am for a nipple comfort and then he will eat at 6am. Well after his 6am dream feed he stays asleep until 945 to 10am. I usually wake up at 900, so I am getting 45mins of alone time in the morning. This has been a huge help. I am able to shower or pump and enjoy a cup of coffee before he is up and rearing to go for the day. I am LOVING this new sleepy morning baby. I am also loving that he does the morning sleep without needing me to be right next to him! I wanted to get a picture of him sleeping in this morning but I was a little late to getting to it. By the time I made it back into the room he was wide awake and the dream sharing began (every morning Braylon spend 20-30 mins right after he wakes babbling away. We say that he is telling us about what he dreamed the night before. It is the CUTEST thing ever!).
Well, I am off to cuddle and talk to my little boy. Enjoy your weekend!
