dr oz pregnancy weight lose
Thanks for all your advice and, better yet, your expressions of sympathy and solidarity. I havent made any decisions about what my strategy will be--or if I even have a strategy besides wait until it gets better.
Ivy has skipped her 1 am waking several times since I posted last. Heres to hoping the trend continues! On the downside, shes getting speedier at standing up as soon as she wakes. Not good.
I think it would help to put her in a separate room, but that isnt logistically possible right now. Maybe Ill try rearranging everyone in a few months. It would mean moving Inga in the same room with Zari and Dio. Inga is a wild card (remember we have to lock her in her room so she doesnt get out 20 times a night?). Putting her with her siblings might not be a great idea until shes a bit older.
Eric just had a good idea: move Inga into our bedroom so Ivy can sleep in a separate room. Inga is a pretty sound sleeper, so we wont disturb her nearly as much as we disturb Ivy. Brilliant...I might have to try it sooner rather than later!

Lots of people had questions or suggestions that Ill answer here.
Is Ivy overtired? Does she nap well? What about changing nap times or bedtime?
Ivy naps twice during the day, morning and afternoon. I think shes getting plenty of sleep overall, and her naps come when she needs them. She gets 2-3 hours of naps during the day and around 12 hours at night. In this regard, shes on the same schedule as my other kids at the same age.
Someone suggested moving her bedtime several hours later to coincide with my bedtime, but that would be a total nightmare for us. She really is ready to sleep at 7 pm, and I need those evening hours to prep for class. Its the only time I have during the day.
Food allergies or sensitivities?
I highly doubt this is a culprit. Ivys sleep pattern has been pretty consistent for months, with slight fluctuations or gradual changes. Nothing in her overall behavior or health points to food sensitivities or allergies. I also havent changed anything in my diet or introduced new foods.
No-cry sleep solution
I read it a few years ago. I probably should revisit it in case there are useful suggestions that I havent thought of. I remember it being okay, but not revolutionary. (Edit: I looked back through older posts and found it very helpful when Dio was little...so my memory is not all that reliable!)
Pacifier/soother/dummy
She thinks theyre a cool chew toy, but shes never figured out how to suck on one.
Teething?
Dont think so. But Ive never been able to tell my kids were teething until the tooth popped through!
Change the sleep environment (different PJs, temperature, white noise, etc)
The room is fairly cool in the winter, so I dress her warmly in two layers plus a blanket swaddled around her torso. I think thats just about right for her. I just switched our noise machine to ocean sounds. Im not sure it made much of a difference, but I was getting tired of the plain white noise!
Eating solids yet?
Nope. Except for stuff she scrounges off the floor. You know, yummy things like paper and dirt :) Shell start eating "real" food soon enough, but I like waiting until my kids are very insistent.
Hotel night or sleep doula?
I dont think I could do that (hotel night) to Ivy yet. And Ive never even heard of a sleep doula...

Ive gone through periods of desperation with all of my kids, usually in the 6-12 month stage. It gets better, then worse, then better, then worse, and finally one day your child sleeps all night long. Amazing.
