re: sleeping
i tried her that PU/PD method but it didn't work on him. actually come to think of it, i wonder if i'm the one who's not reading his sleep cues properly. coz for yesterday n this morning, i didn't try to put him to sleep so fast, just let him play n turn,etc, until he was really really tired then i brought him to bed n he knocked out within 5min, without carrying, just patting n using the paci.
at this point, i wonder if i should let my boy take the lead in sleeping? previously, when i tried to follow a schedule of sorts, following tracy's EASY method, it entails him feeling not ready for sleep n yet me forcing him, thus ending up with carrying/rocking until he's exhausted then he sleeps?
but in letting him take the lead in deciding his naps, would i b not giving him a predictable, structured routine that cultivates gd habits n giving them a sense of security from a routine? hmm.... anyway, will just see the next few days how he is given this method of letting him take the lead in sleeping...

my bb also over 8kg at 4mth plus but my PD never say to reduce feed leh, instead say its alright. the staff there also said that i cannot let bb go on diet at this age n should just let bb grow at his/her own pace. i think weight gain should be more stagnant now that our babies have done most of their growing in the 1st few months. coz next few months, they'll be more active, then start solid food, etc, may grow leaner by then?
