Olive's Sleep Habits



All in all, Olive is a very good baby.  She hardly ever cries, except for when she is hungry or tired. And of course her "fake" cry when she just wants to be held.  Unfortunately, during the day she isn't sleeping as much as she used to!  She gets two good naps around 11am and 4pm for about 2 hours. At night we try and bathe her, feed her, and put her down before 8pm/9pm.  Most nights she sleeps until midnight or a little later.  Daddy usually is up with her so that mommy can get some uninterrupted sleep for a few hours.  After her midnight feeding she sleeps until  about 5/5:30am and then is wide awake!  It takes a good hour to get her back into sleepy time mode and then she is out for another hour. Basically I'm not getting the full 8 hour sleep that I am used to.  But every time I look at her I know it is worth it.
