I've finally noticed a pattern with my baby and her sleep (both naps and bedtime). I nurse her to sleep, or nurse then rock her to sleep, put her down in her Rock and Play. She stays asleep, yay. Almost every time, 10-15 minutes later, she wakes up. We've tried letting her settle herself but it always leads to loud crying, so now we are trying to go in before it escalates. It takes anywhere from 10-30 minutes of bouncing and rocking to get her back down.
What is this? It is really annoying, especially for the times it's taken her forever to go to sleep. Anyone else's LO do this? It's not so bad when we are both home, so DH can go in and bounce her, but when it's just me it's just so tiring! We are quiet in the living room usually so I don't think we are waking her.
Sorry to say, we are JUST now trying to break the 25 min. wake-up (it progressively got better in 5 min. increments). I think it's just a matter of REM cycles, and my baby SUCKS at the transition of cycles - always wakes up. Like a clock. You could time her.
