The Fortieth Night

I have learned 'Ptthhh!"
The Fortieth Night! That's a lot of nights! :) We certainly have come a long way but we are not yet where we want to be. 

Last night I put Collin down at 7:55pm and he cried for about 20 minutes. (Still going in at 7 minute intervals when he cries) He stopped and fell asleep right before the timer went off for the third time. 

Not bad, as about 8pm is the time I am looking for but he was yet again, up at 4:30 am! I did give him his pacifiers and tried to let him fuss for a while, but his fussings were getting louder and louder and were almost a full out cry when I finally gave in and picked him up, nursed him and put him back to bed. He slept until 7am after that, which is the goal time! 

But what is with these new early morning feedings?! We stopped doing that on the first night! Why are we all of a sudden doing it again now? I am not sure how I am going to fix this situation yet. He sleeps in our bedroom, so it is a bit difficult to let him cry when we are in there, trying to sleep. I did let him fuss for a good 20 minutes before I got him up though. *sigh* 

Well, I have about 7 1/2 hours to come up with a plan! :)
