Scout started sleeping through the night at one week. It was inconsistent at first, but at one month he slept through the night regularly. Life was blissful until he turned 4 months, when the little guy hit a growth spurt.  He started chowing down twice as much, which included waking up in the middle of the night for a feast. For the past three weeks, I have happily gotten up and fed him…..but then I caught on. For the first two weeks he frantically guzzled, then it slowly turned into a leisurely sip. Once I realized that his little habit was just that, I decided to take action. Poor Scout was going to have to cry it out a few nights, and re-learn how to give me a great night’s sleep! It really only took three nights of a little fussing, and my little guy is on his way to sleeping like an angel all over again!  And it actually turned out better than I could have hoped.  He used to get up at 6:30 am after sleepng all night, and now it is more like 7:30!
