For the first time in her life last night, Baby slept without me next to her. I have been drumming into her head lately, trying to brainwash her to sleep with her 2 jie jies, so that she can give us back our privacy and freedom…. free from having a kicking baby sleeping with us. Last night was easy. I did not even coax her. Baby climbed up Alycia’s bed, pulled the blanky over her body and said “goodnite mummy!” When I said “goodnite Baby, see you, byyyyeeee”, she replied and said “byyyyeeee!” I was like “that easy huh??” Will she wake up at ungodly hours crying and looking for me? I then went to bed myself but with our bedroom door slightly ajar, just in case Baby came looking for me. But half an hour later, I jumped out of bed. “what if Baby’s fingers get pinched by the doors?” So I quickly put the U shape door stopper back on my bedroom door… and put one on the girls’ bedroom door too. I woke up at 3am to check on Baby and to switch off the air cond. All was A-ok. Baby was sound asleep and so were Alycia and Sherilyn. I woke up at 6am today and crept out of the house at 6:40am to have a quick run round the neighborhood before Baby woke up. Baby managed to sleep through the night without any fuss and without me next to her, I am proud of her. But I think it’s only a fluke. I’m not too sure if it will work again tonight. Wish us luck.
While Baby slept soundly on Alycia’s single bed, guess where Alycia slept then? At the foot of the bed to make way for her baby sister to sleep on her bed! This morning she told me that she wanted Baby to sleep with her again and does not mind sleeping at the foot of the bed again. Isn’t she the bestest jie jie in the WWW?
