This past Sunday night, Akemi slept for 8 hours!!! We woke up at 5am and realized that we didn't wake up once through the night. Akemi slept from 9pm till 5am. We're starting to find that if we give her a warm bath before bedtime and then nurse her, she tends to sleep longer. Unfortunately we don't give her baths every day since I'm worried it'll dry out her skin.
The irony about Sunday night is that we were debating whether to go out to dinner with Jonathan's family since it was getting late. We ended up going to Korean BBQ and didn't come home till 10pm. Akemi cried all the way home but quickly quiet down once we found a Jazz station for her to listen to. We figured we would be up all night since
1. We were out late
2. She was crying all the way home
3. She had a very busy weekend and was up throughout the day
To our surprise, Akemi slept so peacefully.
Of course we knew it was a 'blessing' and last night was a normal night. (i.e. 3 hour feedings)
Nevertheless, we appreciated our first 8 hours of sleep.
