so, the good news is that baby girl can go down for naps with virtually no crying. it's wonderful!
the bad news is that the end of the day is still quite bumpy. and i've been nursing her to sleep at the end of the day. we've had times where she's cried for an hour+ if i've done it other ways (like ending with the bath), or going down too late (after 7:15 or so). so i'm a little shy to try something different again. i'm not sure what to do, because i really don't want to nurse her to sleep forever and ever amen.
the other bad news is that she wakes up in the five or six o'clock hour in the morning. it's too close to my goal of making it to 7am (plus or minus 15 minutes) to give her a proper feeding. and she falls asleep after just a few minutes of eating anyway. so i've started to let her cry it out. it's so hard because it's early morning, and i just feel so bad that she's crying so loudly (potentially) waking everyone up. but she does drift in and out of sleep, so that's good. it's been just a couple of days.
i'm sure we'll figure out these kinks over the next couple of weeks. i'll keep you updated.
