Last night I decided it was time to try to make Livie fall asleep by HERSELF and not in my arms anymore. she needs to learn to do it, and it seems like now is a good time! So- this is how she's been falling asleep- face down. Last night she was bent in half- her head on her feet just sleeping away! This picture is from her nap today. Oh- and this has not been easy so far. Last night she screamed bloody murder for about 45 minutes. It was VERY sad to just let her cry and cry and cry. HOPEFULLY it will be worth it and if she wakes up in the night for some odd reason she will be able to put herself back to sleep. (that's the plan anyway.)

you're right, it WILL be worth it!
That reminds me SO much of Eliza. Keep it up...it will pay off in the long run.
There's just something about that first that you want to hold them and cuddle them until they fall asleep...it's so sweet. Until you can't sleep through the night for 2+ years straight!!
Can she BREATHE that way?
don't worry Ma, I roll her over so she only FALLS asleep like that, and yes, she can breathe. She breathes very heavily.
She is the cutest darned thing. Bless her little baby heart! Cute PJ's too.
oh man, that is so funny that she falls asleep that way!!!. what a sweet heart. does it seem to be getting any better? i know some babies just need to cry for a while before they fall asleep...
as of the past few times she hasn't cried at all. She has her eyes open when she lies down,and about 5-10 minutes later she's alseep! I've been reading a sleep book and it says to put them down to sleep BEFORE they are really tired and crabby. I've been putting her down about 1/2 to an hour earlier and she loves it!
She is so cute! I have to admitt- I was thinking the same thing as your mom- Can she breathe! But you would know better than us. She is so cute. And I'm glad your doing this so you can get more sleep.
Did she do better last night? What about tonight?
