And She Sleeps!

I have been waiting over nine months to say this-Maddie slept through the night! 
She was down to one feeding at night.  I knew she didn't need it anymore (she eats a ton during the day) and it was just habit, and after it was confirmed by the doctor I decided that I would try and push back the feeding time until it was just gone.  She was getting up between 3 and 4am to eat; that was until all of a sudden on Saturday night she wanted to get up at 1am.  The cry seemed different and so thinking she had a nightmare I went in to console her.  But she didn't want me just to hold her and I thought, 'oh no you're not getting anything to eat now!'.  After two hours of trying to get her back to sleep, I had enough.  I decided the following night she would not be getting any attention from me.  She woke up around the same time, and continued to cry off and on for the next two hours.  This happened again the third night, and after having a headache for 3 straight days, I didn't know how much more I could take. 

But, then there was last night.  I woke up at 5am, realizing that not only did she not get up at any point to eat, but she didn't wake up at all-or if she did she went right back to sleep without a peep.  It made me a bit nervous, but I told myself she was okay and if I go in there and check on her she will just wake up.  So there we have it, baby Maddie, almost 10 months old, finally sleeps through the night.  Now, let's just hope she does it again.
