oohhh, sorry! my rule is that once they sleep for a certain number of hours, they are not allowed to digress. (I do wait until they are at a good weight and age before i start this rule!), but once I know that they aren't hungry... when they wake up before they really need to eat, i just give them their binky, or if that doesn't work, i rock and soothe them back to sleep, and then eventually, they just stop waking up in those short increments, and then, they are sleeping through the night. i guess that is more difficult when, like you said, you are the binky! ;) good luck though, i'm sure she's close!
Hahah! That's just funny how you phrased that! I'm sorry that she didn't sleep as much for you last night. That just sucks! Olivia kept on waking up last night too. Drats!
I am a wife and a mother of four. I am a singer, I love to dance, and I am now a Certified Birth Doula. I have found my passion...
to empower and support women through the transition to motherhood.

it's okay! don't get discouraged; at least you know she CAN do it. she doesn't need to wake up, she probably is just in the habit.
here's to gradual processes! :)
Ohhhh... hold on!!!
