9 hours

Last night, Scout slept from 11:30 pm to 8:30 am....without waking up at all. It was weird. I slept all night w/ DH in our room and Scout slept in her own room on her queen size mattress. Usually, if she sleeps by herself, I hear her fuss over the monitor at about 4:00 am and I go in there to feed her and sleep with her for the rest of the morning.

She did have 2 really good naps yesterday. I have had a lot of moms tell me that their babies and toddlers sleep better at night when they get good naps during the day and aren't over-tired at bedtime. Even though that seems backwards, I think there's something to it.

Well I'll be going backwards in my posts - I'm just catching up on you. :)

Oh YES!!!! Yes, children who are overtired slept worse then those that are well napped and put to bed at a reasonable hour. Crazy huh?! Not really... their wee bods need sleep. They are continually growing and learning!! :)

Not "tooting" my own horn here - trust me it's not as if I've been "published", but my "musings" on this subject made it to the web once. http://www.clubmom.com/display/234341?printer_friendly=true
