LOL! Setting her own hours may just be the beginning, although I don't want to discourage you from having other babies!! Since all 6 of my kids went to sleep at night before 10 PM, I don't know how to train them NOT to stay up! Maybe the house being dark and quiet discouraged it, I don't know? I liked Bethany's advice. Keep trying!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8024783.post-1154236828378203832006-07-29T22:20:00.000-07:002006-07-29T22:20:00.000-07:00It's kind of hard to do it now, but try to wear he...It's kind of hard to do it now, but try to wear her out and use up her energy about 1/2 hour before bed, then give her a nice warm bath. They have some new Lavender bath stuff (a few of my friends really swear by it). Wrap her up in a blanket and cuddle her/rock her with the lights down low, and soft music in the background. Make sure that her room temp is 68-70 degrees (if possible), as this is optimal sleeping temperature for babies (actually most humans in general prefer this temp range).<BR/><BR/>Most of all . . . good luck!!Bethanyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18313344172759574745noreply@blogger.com
