Sleeping longer at night

So, you wouldn't believe it if you saw how tall and chubby Eden is, but she's actually not a fantastic eater. She gets distracted easily and often stops eating if we take a break to burp or switch sides. I think it's because she's so content and wants to smile and talk so much. So, I've been less diligent about getting her to take a full feeding at each nursing session (because smiling and talking are so fun for me too!!). Buuuuut I think this is why she's not sleeping through the night yet. When she does wake at night to eat, she eats very well, I guess because she's sleeping and not distracted. So, I think she may even be getting more calories in during the night than during the day. 

Moses started sleeping through the night (i.e. 6-7 hours at a stretch) on Babywise at 7 weeks. Eden has been on Babywise, except for the part about really getting a full feeding at each session... So I decided to up my game this week because I think I'll be a zombie at work if I still have to get up 2-3 times a night. 

I have been pushing her to eat more during the day and trying to only give her one side when we wake at night. And you know what? We almost made it to 6 hours the night before last!!! 6 glorious hours. I know she's old enough and big enough to sleep longer at night, so I'll keep pressing on to get it!! :) 

And an update about the swaddle, haha, she'll be just fine:

Oh, and an update about the end of the day. Just about two short weeks later, Eden is now able to stay up to eat at 7 and have a bath and go to sleep on her own, with no crying, somewhere between 7:30 and 8. Things change so fast. And the morning wake up is getting better. I've tried a bit to let her cry it out, but if she is congested, I pick her up, give her saline in her nose, hold her until she stops crying and her breathing sounds better, and put her down. She's been able to sleep until 7 or so for a few mornings this week! Yay. :)
