We have officially eliminated the "middle of the night" (aka 4am) feed. The girls slept until 6:30 on Sunday and 6:45 this morning! The funny thing is when they wake, they don't want to eat. I've learned this now, so I waited almost an hour to feed them after waking today. Worked like a charm.
So they ARE sleeping through the night...granted that Sydney is still waking and playing (and crying) around 4am. Early Sunday morning her waking episode only lasted 15 minutes - after mommy rubbed her back for about 5. Leaving the room thoroughly ticked her off, but she was tired enough to fall back asleep relatively quickly. This morning wasn't quite as easy. I rubbed her back for a bit after she woke at 4:15. She then proceeded to cry on and off for about an hour. She never did the "oh my gosh my Mommy's so mean" cry...so I didn't go back in her room. It's hard, but I know she doesn't need to eat. She was all smiles this morning too.
