caleb was having 30 mins nap (3 naps a day) the whole last week, and I was frustrated with it. Because I know 30 minutes nap is not enough rest. During that whole week, his bedtime was earlier too. he slept at 6pm (usual is 7pm), because he was too tired to make it to 7pm.
I was overtired too..because with my wakeful baby, the days seemed to be so long..
But I'm glad I had found a solution.
I browsed a website that said this 30 mins nap is caused by the sleep transition. Putting a child sleep earlier (not overtired) will make him pass the transition easily without really waking up.
caleb can be awake for 2-3 hours after a nap. so i tried putting him to nap 15mins earlier than usual. well, it has worked til now..his nap is back to 1.5hours now..he takes 2 long naps and 1 short nap in a day..and so bedtime is back to 7pm again! :)

what's happening this week..
Hi readers..
you may have read my monday incident posting..about caleb's ear infection..
some friends have asked me how he's doing now..
Oh after the antibiotics given..he is well til today he's never cried like that anymore.
and in fact, he has been a very wonderful baby this whole week.
he behaves very well..he's happy and cheerful..he let me do my household chores while he's playing alone on his mat/bed..
This week..he likes to giggle and smile alot...
This week..he seems to want to play and play and play..he refused to take his nap longer.
on wednesday he only took 30 mins nap!!!
I'm confused whether to let him wake or try to put him to sleep again.
Tracy Hogg said babies at his age still need to take a nap 3x a day..2 hours on the first and second nap and 30 mins of catnap in late afternoon..
But other mummy advised me that as babies grow up, they don't need as much sleep as when they were younger..
this is difficult to decide.
because caleb is always having transition issues in his sleep. during his sleep cycle, he always need us to pat him back to sleep. Before we will always able to help him back to sleep..but this week is super difficult..because he seems to want to play..so his drive to wake is stronger than his drive to sleep! during the transition it is important for a child to win his drive to sleep..
We did let him sleep for 30 mins only and let him play..on that day he took 4x naps (usual is 3x only) and still ended exhausted at bedtime...
so i haven't really decided on this nap issues.
milk intake
since taking solids, his milk intake dropped so much.
I knew it was going to happen. It is normal. But I didn't expect it to be this much.
he never finished his 180ml milk on feed 1, 2 and 3. but luckily he still finished his feed before sleep and his dream feed. there were days he only took 50-60ml only!!!
Night sleep
since solids too..he doesn't ask for milk at night. but he still woke up around 3 or 4 AM..i think this is just waking up for a habit. But Last night he didn't wake up anymore til morning. I guess solids really help to full his little tummy..

REM and NON REM
There are two types of sleep:
REM (rapid eye movement sleep)
This is a light sleep when dreams occur and the eyes move rapidly back and forth. Although babies spend about 16 hours each day sleeping, about half of this is in REM sleep. Older children and adults sleep fewer hours and spend much less time in REM sleep.
Non-REM sleep:
Non-REM has 4 stages:
Stage 1 - drowsiness - eyes droop, may open and close, dozing
Stage 2 - light sleep - the baby moves and may startle or jump with sounds
Stage 3 - deep sleep - the baby is quiet and does not move
Stage 4 - very deep sleep - the baby is quiet and does not move
Babies may awaken as they pass from deep sleep to light sleep and may have difficulty going back to sleep in the first few months.

just naturally and eventually will get there..
I really cracked my head doing alot of research to solve this sudden habitual night waking.
this morning..I decided to go back to CIO (cry it out method) since I couldn't find anything else that seems to be the solution. Actually there's another way: PU/PD (pick up/put down) by tracy hogg.
what is PU/PD?
it is a technique to teach baby to fall asleep on their own, extend longer nap, fall back to sleep if they wake up in the middle of their sleep WITHOUT leaving the baby alone. cara ini emang lbh manusiawi yah...so..when the baby cries, you pick him up to calm him..once he is calmed, put him down..if he cries againm pick him and so on..it could go on and on from 20 pick ups til 100 pick ups!!
But I still decided to use CIO as it proves to be effective for so many people. but I know CIO sepertinya ngga manusiawi..tega amattt sama babynya..well, ngga juga lohh...CIO berat juga buat mummy-nya..coz it drains mothers emotions too..she can cry along with the baby!
I have a friend from singapore motherhood forum who used this technique since her baby came home from hospital, and her baby now sleeps well and can fall asleep on her own too!! I admire her!! but anyway, i know many indonesian mothers are against this. Adat timur masih ngga terbiasa pake cara orang bule gini..maklum di indo bisa pake pembantu/suster. The good thing is..at home cuma ada me n hubby..kalo ada my in laws, mungkin sampe skrg aku masih end up gendongin caleb mulu utk nidurin dia..
Anyway...for his 2nd nap, I tried CIO again. I also made up my mind later at night I'll be using this too if caleb suddenly wakes up (not for hunger). well, this time it lasted for total 45 mins with 4x check in. and those 45 mins..he was still crying out loud..and again I gave up! I went in and comforted him til he was asleep.
During this 1 hour nap, I just felt like I want to pray. and I really asked His wisdom so I would know what to do. I just want caleb to have enough sleep and milk so that he grows well.
And this is what I have in my heart during the prayer...that I should just let it all fall naturally in its time..caleb will fall asleep on his own when he is ready..he will eventually get there...and that word: NATURALLY...stucks in my heart. but i feel peace. so I dropped the CIO idea for tonight.
I believe there's power in a mother's prayer..and let God alone works... so I wont rely on any techniques!

New Sleeping Challenge!
Parenting is challenging! there's always new challenge...wahh really being a mother is not easy..I wish to fully focus on caleb, I wish I don't need to work but still earning money haha.. Now with my job starting already, I get so tired sometimes..mostly capek pikiran berujung capek badan hehe..
well, back to the topic..
iya nih duhh masalah sleeping kok datang silih berganti..
dulu masalah ngga mau ditaruh di ranjang, minta gendong mulu - case solved!
trus..masalah ngga bisa ketiduran, selalu nangis kayak orang berantem sebelom bobo - now has improved alot!
dan sekarang........ hux my caleb yg bisa sleep through the night sampe pagi..tiba2 3 hari ini kok bangun tiap jam 2-3 pagi..pertama aku kira habitual waking, hari pertama aku kasi paci sukses, bertahan sampe jam 5.30an..eh hari ke 2 n ke 3 kok gak sukses ya...itu paci-nya diemut bentar trus di spit out..dan masih gelisah terus...akhirnya aku kasih minum susu, tapi juga ngga habis.
wahh pusing dehh..krn gara2 ini, jadi merubah jam minum dan nap-nya yg sudah dibuat rutin kmrn2 ini..
After doing some research from tracy hogg book, it said that baby who had been sleeping through the night is possible to suddenly wake up in the middle of the night..if not because of growth spurt, then it is due to the transition from 3 months to 4 months old. As babies below 4 months old has a 3 hourly routine (feed every 3 hour) and 4 months above has 4 hourly. Naps also change. at 4 months, babies nap 2-3x only, while below 4 months nap for 3-4x. So all this changes and transition cause disruption to baby sleep pattern.
And it seems that there's not much that I can do..except to wait that this phase will be over soon and caleb can sleep thru again..

Sleep Training
After spending a night on research from many websites...I decided to follow this method (since all webs suggesting this): to leave your baby cry out til he finally able to fall asleep by himself!
the webs say that crying out is normal (to my surprise there are so many babies cry before sleep!). By crying out, baby finds his way to soothe himself to sleep. but often the mothers interruption is just delaying the process to fall asleep.
this method is not an easy thing to do..coz not only the baby can cry, but the mother too!
well..here it goes..
after the bedtime routine, kiss good nite to the baby you leave him lying on the bed ALONE.
after 5 mins come back to check on him (expect he's crying!), and then leave again for 10 mins and come back...and so on and so on...just increase the duration after each come back.
it says that some babies can cry up to 15-30mins.
the second day usually is the worst! but by third day should be less cry or no at all.
however, some babies take even 7 days!!
And so...today I tried. and Failed! Haha..
i tried for 2 mins and come back..crying was so loud!
and then left him for 5 mins and came back...cry was louder!
and then 8 mins (supposed to be 10mins), but his cry really melted my heart..so i went in and calmed him..within 1 mins he fell asleep! haha the good thing is..he may be too exhausted crying and just fell asleep once I patted his back.
His second nap? did i try again? NO!
I just make sure he was calm enough before sleep. I talked to him and give him lots of cuddles and then put him on his side and pat his back..guess what..he fell asleep within 1 min also! and the nap lasted for 2.5hour! yayy..!!
and just now I did the same for his bed time. fell asleep directly too and no crying at all.
hmm...
could it be the room is nicer?
(well, we moved caleb to our master bedroom since caleb's room aircon was leaking - so of course the bed is more comfortable, our bed is king sized bed..it's bigger, more cozy)
Or..
could it be he learned from this morning.."it is better to sleep fast and has mummy beside me than being left alone lying on this bed" ?
hmm..I don't know..
but I hope this is for good...!!

A Breakthrough
A breakthrough today!
Praise God.
sebenernya aku bener2 merasa tanpa kasih karuniaNYa ngga bakal sanggup melalui hari2 ini..hehe..tapi Dia sll memampukan..
Hari ini start training caleb again..
I put him on bed, miringin badannya..tepok2 pantatnya and sing "yes, jesus loves me"..he cried, as usual... I put in mind..i would try this for 15 mins, if the cry didn't stop, baru deh aku gendong...eh ternyata 5 menit he stopped crying and he closed his eyes. so Happy...tapi dlm 1 jam nap itu dia kebangun 3x, although cepet2 aku tepok lagi pantatnya dia bobo lg...cuma heran aja gimana ya supaya bobonya enak dan gak kebangun2...trus at that time aku berasa Tuhan kasih aku hikmat. aku keinget di buku tracy Hogg-baby whisperer, dia bilang kalo train baby harus sabar..minimal 20 menit tidurin dia..jadi slm 20 menit itu terus2an pat his back and sing/do ssh...sshh... karena baby baru masuk ke deep sleep skitar 20 menit itu..sign-nya watch his eyes..kalo pupil matanya masih gerak di balik kelopaknya berarti blm in deep sleep and kalo kita stop pat his back , dia bakal sering kaget n bisa kebangun. so the next 1 hour i tried that method...capek emang...I did that for 25 mins..pat his back n keep singing..and emang bener sih dia gak kebangun2 and once i saw his eyes steady and his breath getting shallow..i stopped patting and left him in the room... wah enak rasanya...the next 30 mins I can have time for myself and caleb sama sekali ngga kaget2 lg.
the afternoon nap..I did the same. and it worked too!
praise God! :)
Also, bener2 bersyukur...God is good all the time...ada aja jalanNya utk bantu aku...udah 4 hari ini dititipin maid ama ci lina. coz she and her fam will be in indo til early august, jadi maid-nya nitip sama aku. bener2 helpful banget..although dia gak aku suruh pegang caleb, tapi dia bisa bantu bersihin rumah, cuci baju caleb, setrika, cuci botol and steril botol juga...I'm very blessed.
Thanks Jesus... :)

the 3rd day
Caleb is sleeping now..finally can put him down..phew...
well..report for today: it was good! :)
still using my yesterday technique --> do not do carrying job too much, save energy! hehe..
and also today I start training caleb to sleep on bed
first Nap... I carried him first for 15 mins then put him on stroller. Failed. he cried immediately.
then carry him again, and put him on couch...last for 10 mins and cried. decided to carry him again and then I sit down and put him on my lap. he slept well.
second Nap... I carried him for 15 mins and put him on bed. cried. pat him on his back and sing for 5 mins, the crying didn't stop. so I carried him again and sit down, he slept on my lap til he woke up for milk.
third Nap... decided before he got sleepy, i put him on bed and talk to him...when I saw him yawning, I turned his body to the side facing me. I slept beside him and put his head on my arm, and patted him on his back, sang to him. he cried. I preservered. I had to try, right? and the next 5 mins, he already closed his eyes and finally asleep on my arm. During his 1 hour nap, I didn't dare to move my arm or put his head down coz just a little movement from me, he would get surprised. And I noticed he so often jumped his hand and leg, I think he was dreaming. and whenever he did that, it always woke him up. I quickly patted him again. No wonder he woke up crying and his nap wouldn't last long everytime i put him down.
I know some people put their babies sleep on their tummies, they say that this way can make babies sleep better ,but i refused to do that. Every article I read says it's dangerous to put babies sleep on tummies coz it could cause sudden death to the babies. Most parents who do this must watch over theis babies when they're sleeping.
so what to do people? how to prevent this jumping on his sleep? my last technique was okay..but if i had to saty beside him all the time..that means I couldn't do other things while he's sleeping. Besides my hand really ached for holding his head too long..
I hope each day is a better day and caleb finally can settle himself to sleep.
anyway, I honestly enjoy my baby so much. he's getting more adorable each day...and he always melts my heart everytime he smiles to me :)
mummy loves you so much, Kay!

my 2nd day
My second day was better.
learning from yesterday lesson...krn too much carrying caleb, we both were exhausted. So dapet hikmat nih hehe...pas caleb awake n maen2, aku ga mau terlalu sering gendong dia..jadi aku ajak maen di playmat..kalo bosen aku latih dia flip over...eh dia bisa loh..with my assistance sih..jadi aku miringin badannya dikit and he did the turning hehe..i was so happy...trus kalo dah bosen lg..i just sit down with him (he's on my lap) and then i open a strory book and read him...and then sing with him or just simply lie on bed and talk to him...jadi cuma gendong dia pas dia mau bobo aja..
sempet coba put him down on bed while he's asleep..well, cuma bertahan 20 menit..tp lumayan banget!!! hehe hasilnya....bisa post blog deh hehehe...
again last night after his dream feed at 9.30pm he slept through til 4am..and then drink his milk and sleep again til 7.45am.
2nd day masih keinget enaknya ada suster...masih sedikit sedih...tapi ngga sampe kayak kemaren lah sedihnya...
jiayou on 3rd day! hopefully by 1 week, I am already very used to this new role!
