Thank you for the suggestions on how to get my baby to sleep through the night. We're still not there yet, but maybe one day soon she will surpise us. The doctor told us we could start trying to feed her 1st foods. I was wondering what babies liked the best, and how often I should feed her those, whether I should just do it at night or during the day as well. I don't know how she will do, since she's only 4 months old, but if it will help her sleep I'll try anything.

Grace Nicole Schroeppel is now about 3 1/2 months old. She is beginning to smile more and more everyday. She weighs a little over 12 pounds, so she's growing really well and getting heavier. The only thing we can't seem to get her to do is sleep through the night. She doesn't even sleep during the day at the babysitter. If she does sleep at all during the day it's maybe 45 minutes. She just takes cat naps every now and then. She will eventually sleep about 5 hours at night and then we're up again - and she does not want t go back to sleep. I don't think this baby requires much sleep, but I do. I would love to know what others have done to get their babies to sleep.
