what a very interesting weekend we've had. for the first time in her life (seven and half months of it) percy slept thru the nite on saturday 17 november 2007. fancy that, hey? this was the perfect nite to do it as paul's parents agreed to babysit while we went out. just paul and i. just the two of us. alone. no percy. what a decidedly odd feeling that was.
we did our usual bedtime routine and she dropped off nearly instantly. we were out the door by 7:30pm. home again around 9:30pm so not an extensive nite on the booze or anything like that but really, really appreciated. she had a little protest at 11:30pm which was soothed away by the dummy ('nother story about the resumption of dummy use.) and then we didn't hear from her until 6:00am! paul woke around 4:00am and asked when i had fed her, to which i replied "i haven't yet", that surprised him. consequence of not feeding thru the nite was terribly engorged breasts come the morning. they didn't know percy wasn't going to want them! she cleared that problem up quick smart at 6:00am anyways. then went back to sleep for another 40 minutes. gee whiz it keeps getting better!
sadly last nite was back to the usual, a couple of feeds and a couple of settles. oh well. there is hope. it can be done once- it can be done again!

Hey wow, that's fantastic. Have you worked out what kind of voodoo caused her to sleep so well? Anything you can repeat?
