    Sal, that's my thinking too.

    If I dont give him a second chance, I am punishing him for how others have treated me, and being no better that the Daves and Wills of the world.

    But it's a 2nd chance, there will be no 3rd, 4th, 5th chances.


    Good Good :D

    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Claire, if it's a one-off, and she is a healthy, normal baby, let her sleep.

    Natasha HAD to be woken for feeds, as she slept 22+ hours per day for the first few weeks, but she was an extreme case (she would sleep through feeds, therefore have less and less energy, therefore sleep more and more), and I wouldn't have dreamed of waking her otherwise.

    If she gets hungry, she will wake up. :)

    Claire I would wake her, or just give her a dreamfeed (when you feed them and they are practically asleep)

    And B was the complete opposite awake for 22 hours and asleep for maybe 2 :mad::eek:

  • It depends Claire-
    I was a firm follower of the 'Contented Baby' school of feedings/babies etc. I woke mine for feeds at 10 and then they slept thru the night...did your friend tell you to do that?

    Can you not call or text and ask?
