Monday I started weening William completely off of his pacifier, doing it cold turkey. I decided that besides the fact that I wanted him off of it before the baby got here, Nick being gone now was perfect. This way I don't have to worry about William waking Nick up in the middle of the night if he can't find it, or keeping him up from not wanting to go to sleep.
The first nap, was terrible, non existent in fact. He cried for a little over an hour, until I just went it and got him. The second nap went better. It was probably between an hour and an hour and a half before he fell asleep, but he only cried for about thirty of those minutes. Bedtime however, not one noise was heard from his room. I laid him down, and he was out like a light. Wonderful sound to my ears!
Tuesday started out more of the same. He wouldn't eat, so I changed him but all he did was whine, so, although earlier than usual, I laid him down for a nap and he just cried and cried. Having a busy morning/ early afternoon, this was his only chance for a nap until later in the day. His second nap, we had just gotten home from a friends house, so I made him a bottle and he fell asleep eating, so I don't know that I could count that as successful. However, being sick, he went to bed almost an hour early once again, without hearing one noise from him before falling asleep, AND he slept all night!
