Bradley had been sleeping pretty good lately. He is in his own crib and only has been waking up once in the middle of the night around 5:00 to eat. That is a huge improvement from the time he was a week old and slept only during the day or later when he did learn to sleep at night, he didn't want to sleep alone. I don't know what it is but the last two nights he has been waking me up every hour or hour and a half. When I go in there he isn't awake but he isn't necessarily sleeping either. His eyes are closed but he is making fussing noises. I don't normally give him a pacifier but I do when he seems to want it so in this circumstance I tried it. It seems to calm him down and he goes back to sleep just to wake up again in another hour the same way. I don't know if he is getting tired of being swaddled or he might be teething. He is drooling and chomping on his fingers all of the time so that could be the problem. Either way I hope that he starts sleeping longer through the night again. I almost started to forget how it felt to be a sleep deprived new mom.
Last night before we put Bradley down for the night he was playing in his Jumperoo. Both of his feet now touch the floor so we dont need to put a cushion under him anymore which is nice. I was watching TV and imitating this girl on American Idol that claps funny and Bradley started laughing. Apparently he loves clapping. It is funny how the small things are the things that babies love the most.
