While I am thinking about it...

Anyone have any thoughts on why Harlee is regressing with sleep?

She was sleeping 7pm - 6am - which was perfect.

....and then it was 7pm to 4am to 6 am

Now it is 7pm to 2am to 5:45am.

I get up, hand her a pacifier and she goes back to sleep. We had to lower the crib mattress so I took out the bumper and now her pacifier is always on the floor. I would ignore it all together and wait it out, but she stands up in her crib, jumps around and cries like it is morning.

The biggest problem with this is, aside from her sleeping like a 3 month old, is that I get up at 4:30 am to do my school work before everyone wakes up.......

Anyway, she is teething like crazy..anyone know if teething causes something like this and it will self correct?

Or have any fabulous suggestions? Thanks!

My first thought is that she's hungry. She should be eating solid foods, and since she isn't, she gets hungry. The teething may also contribute.

I would throw a bunch of pacifiers in there in case one or two fall out, she can still grab another. Teething may be waking her up more often, you can give her ibuprofen for night time. Kids sleeping patterns change or are interupted all the time from random things. hang in there!
