and being a parent,you will go through special moments that you will remember forever like.the time when my son was lying in his bed and called me to his room so he could hand me a booger he had no idea what to do with............and i took it .......your life is about to change!!!

my first boy didnt start sleeping thru the night til after he was 1yr old.. but, our 8 month old, he has been sleeping thru the night since about 4-5 months.. he will wake up once or twice a month and require some TLC, but he is pretty consistent.. we put him down at around 10-11 pm, and he is still asleep when i leave to take jacob to school at 7:30.

i would definitely say our second has been much easier than our first(knock on wood)..

Our daughter is now 10 months. She sleeps from 7 or 8 until about midnight. Wakes up for a quick feed and TLC then is out until 6.
For the first 8 months she was switching her sleeping pattern about every 3-6 weeks though. There simply was no pattern.
Every child is different and tricks do not always work. Lots of wives' tales about things to help kids sleep. The advice seems never-ending from those around you.

My 17 month old has been sleeping regularly from 8:00 - 8:00 for about 9 months now. At around 5 months, she was able to sleep from 8:00 - 1 AM, get fed, and sleep through the night. We are pretty lucky. With twins coming in August, I feel our luck is about to change.

Royce73, congrats and good luck with the twins. Our twins 1st year was an absolute whirlwind that went by in a heartbeat. Didn't get much sleep, but wouldn't trade a minute of it for anything.
