Mom and Papà got revenge yesterday but I am already working on the strike back plan.
So I have been going on fabulously and happily with my sleeping pattern I don’t understand what Mom and Papà’s problem with it is. I mean, I sleep well! When it is light out and there is a lot of background noise, I sleep and when it is dark and silent, I am awake and, clearly, want to play.
So what’s the problem guys?!?! Everyone we meet tells you what a well-behaved good baby I am so why the fuss?!?!
Anyway, they decided that they wanted to change my sleeping habits (for reasons, as mentioned above, I don’t understand!) and have tried everything.
First, 30 g of chamomile tea at night. It tasted good, but really had no effect since I was already well rested. Then, they went the more “brutal” route. They didn’t let me sleep! Every time I tried, they kept me up by playing with me, having me eat, etc. (OK, so I didn’t really suffer and I have to admit I enjoyed the extra play time). By the time night came around, I was pooped! Mom had me eat a lot and then, as if that wasn’t enough, I got chamomile again. Although I like it, I was too tired to drink much. So that is what they did to me! (Though I’ll never admit it to Mom, I actually slept quite well. Please don’t tell her)
Well, it is the morning and as you can see from the photo, I am already working and a plan of counter attack! I’ll keep you posted.
Mom – He can say anything he wants, but we are better rested today and I think today will be the first day in 2.5 months that Papà can drive to work without risking an accident because of falling asleep on the motorino! (and you can see from the other picture…he doesn’t hate being awake during the day that much)

Hi Alyce! Hope all is well with the little one and that sleep is coming as well as possible. Maya never had her days and nights mixed up, but I did once hear that the "better" the naps the "better" they sleep through the night because they are not overtired. We also used a white noise machine in the bedroom for all naps and nightime with wave sounds...a nice signal for baby that playtime is over...
