habit.

Dr. Eddings reports that she is indeed perfect. :) and that she doesn't need that middle of the night feeding. she's just in a habit of getting up, but doesn't really NEED to eat then. so we're going to start to try to drop that one. that means instead of ME going in to get her when she wakes up, brandon will have to. now normally i let brandon sleep. i mean what's the point of waking him up? i only wake him up if i absolutely can't get her back to sleep which has only been a handful of times. anyways, she said that if i go in she'll think she's getting fed and we don't want to tease her. there may be some crying involved, but usually after about 4 nights of it we're good to go. we of course don't HAVE to do this, but i think we'll give it a try either this week or next. she's slept 9 hrs a couple times, 8 hrs a few times and usually at least 6 hrs so i know she has it in her and she's not starving. dr. eddings said to expect the best out of her which was those 9 hrs. we're planning on trying this in the next week or two. wish us luck!
