I know parents often preen over the new accomplishments of their children, but Jason has just accomplished something that is coming at a cost. He has learned to roll from his back to his tummy, but cannot master the reverse. What does this mean??? Lack of sleep. He has done it in his sleep & then cries because he is stuck. Last night was not a peaceful night. Going & rolling him over is pointless for two reasons: 1- he learns nothing by it & 2- he rolls right back over a few minutes later anyway & you go through it all over again.
I do not remember the pain of this accomplishment with Sydney, but was reminded by a friend when I called her this morning for advice. Although I do not remember this problem with Sydney, I did remember my friend having this issue with her little guy. She told me that I told her that it took Sydney three nights to sort it out. I trust her to be remembering correctly, but was not happy to hear this news. Sydney adjusted to most things at night quicker than Jason has, therefore I am now preparing to be dealing with this issue for quite a few nights to come. Naps today have not been very peaceful, because he is having the same problem in the day. I think tonight we might return to the wedges we used when he was a newborn to see if that does anything to prevent the problem.
All I know is that yet again the Taylor household will not be having peaceful nights.
