Victory Over V Part II

When V was sick I was very worried. As you read, it went on and on and only got worse. So, the little midget learned to wake up and get my attention. I can check on him and give him milk at 5am, poor guy. 4:45 am is just like 5am. 4:20am? What is a few minutes. 4? 3:30 Wait a minute, this is not the morning, it is the middle of the damn night. For days on end, post illness I supported V's wacky MOD (milk on demand) program. Then I had a revelation. I have sleep trained you before midget, I will do it again. Unfortunately for me/us, it looks like this puppy has a strong will (surprise!) and he cried for ONE HOUR straight for 3 NIGHTS IN A ROW. He was kind enough to make it 3-4am one night and 4-5am another just to keep it interesting. Well, last night/this am, I did not hear a peep from him until 5:30am. AHA! I won. You can teach (old) babies (old) tricks. Mamma won this round. PS No other child in the bedroom was affected by this screaming- V's still hoarse voice helped lower the volume of his crying.
