I have decided I have to get Natalie off of waking up at night. She really doesn't need to eat when she wakes up so I have stopped feeding her in the middle of the night. When she has woken up the last two nights, I have picked her up and held her but tried not to do any soothing. She does fall asleep in my arms fairly easily but then doesn't like it when I lay her back down in the crib. Sunday night, I was up for 1.5 hours, last night only 1.15 hours. Progress, hmm?
Tonight she wasn't asleep after eating before bed so I laid her down and she wailed. I went in 5 minutes later to find her on her tummy wailing away. She can roll over both ways but lately seems not to like it on her tummy and instead of getting herself turned around, she just hollers. So I put her back on her back, stuck the pacifier in and left her. 15 minutes later she seems to have quieted down. Crossing my fingers....

I know that your sibs have also done this, but I do not remember at what age.
Interesting that Natalie does not want to roll over herself. I always thought the stomach to the back was the easier way to go.
Hope peaceful nights are coming soon.
