I just love this picture. I had just layed Isabelle down for bed and this is the typical look on her face everytime I put her down, even during the day for a nap. She might lay there like that with her eyes open for 5 minutes or so but every time, ends up falling asleep. I have to say, it is wonderful. On average she will be awake for an hour to an hour and a half between naps during the day and at night she will wake usually twice for a drink between 11a and 8a. Of course that can change from night to night. I have definitely realised that garlic needs to be avoided at all costs. Even the smallest amount tends to give her a very restless night. I have also been trying once again to swaddle her at night so she will sleep longer stretches. We managed a 6 hour and a 5 hour stretch this week but last night she was just the totally escape artist again! That girl can get out of anything. Definitely strong and determined sometimes. Oh well, we will carry on. Oh and just so you know, once she is asleep, I turn her onto her side or back. She is also never left alone while sleeping on her stomach. At night I will just sit in bed watching TV while she goes to sleep and during the day, she is in her bassinet by me.
