It seems that E has successfully attached :) If you want to detach then the Ferber method is explained in "Secrets of the Baby Whisperer" and "The Contented Little Baby book".

I found I could let him do two short naps on his own and one long nap on me a day. At least then I knew he was getting one decent stretch.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps you could try the napping on the boppy. That at least frees up both hands, although you have to try to type over his head if you are at the computer.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09465194403058080094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22151779.post-1158111107018237862006-09-12T18:31:00.000-07:002006-09-12T18:31:00.000-07:00I am addicted to the baby yawn too!

You might want to try putting a single (or queen) mattress on the floor, in the corner of his room. I'm a huge fan of this, because it allows you to cuddle the baby to sleep and then sneak away. They love it too, because they don't feel confined - and they are really too small to roll off - if you are worried, get body pillows to keep them safe and feeling snuggled - even if they did roll, a nice soft rug would cushion their fall. Good luck with the arm! www.thechaseison.blogspot.comChasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18333410531267066420noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22151779.post-1158031782455250032006-09-11T20:29:00.000-07:002006-09-11T20:29:00.000-07:00You're getting there!

She's gone down in it the last three nights, and before that, it was her swing or my chest or nothing! I give myself three more minutes, max, and I'm going to go pick her up. Sigh.<BR/>And we're done... Swing it is!Ezzahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17938706879679939085noreply@blogger.com
