the 11 o'clock news or something. She has really been fighting sleep here for the past week or so, and around 7 she gets fussy...rubbing eyes...etc. and if I rock her she will fight sleep and kick against me, in crib she will cry...this starts around 7 and continues for a couple hours till she is exhausted. She used to be out by 7ish and now she is tired but wont let go. So last night I do the whole "put her down before she gets real tired" thing and same scenario and then a fight ensued between hub and I because he says "she is not a robot and if she wants to stay up late let her." Yeah, fine and all but her sitting on the couch watching Letterman w/ her dad is not the way I want to do it and I think that her getting used to this is attributing to her fighting sleep...she is getting used to falling asleep on the couch for the past few days and it is getting worse...and she is exhausted!!!! But continues to fight...and bedtime has turned into a 4 hour long battle (already)....
...and to let you know how last night went...lets just say I woke up this morning w/ my dear daughter asleep next to me in my bed. I am all for some that co-sleep, but I REALLY WANT her to be able to sleep in her crib soon and be able to let herself fall asleep when she is tired...and before the part where she gets overly tired. What am I doing wrong?? She is not 2....she is only 4.5 months and still sooooo little. But when she cries and I go check on her every few minutes she will scream (in a happy way) stop crying and kick all around like "get me get me get me" and I do....

our baby has gotten like this but is almost 7 mths now . mommy broke out the travel stroller and walks him in this in the house when it is too cold to go outside and when it is warm enough I place him on my shoulders and go for a half mile hike or ride the lawn mower with him on my lap ,however we are in a warm climate and I realize it may be winter where you are ....
I beleive the baby is in control and will do what the baby wants and there is nothing I can do about it .......
I am not an expert in babies and sleep and this is our first (and hopefuly only??)
sometimes when I get too tired dealing with my son,if he will let me I will let him rest on my lap or beside me in the recliner and watch tv until he gets tired enough for bed .....
it can get really stressful between a couple with different attempts at the same end which seems like we are fighting against each other . both trying to do their best the only way they can think of ......
just remember you are both dealing with an insane situation and possibly you are both a little insane yourselves right now ...
good luck
