craziest old wives tale I have ever heard.(update on bottom)
Have you ever heard it?
Turn your baby clockwise to get him to sleep through the night. 
Honestly, I am so desparate to sleep that I tried spinning him around in his crib 3 times

Re: craziest old wives tale I have ever heard.
Someone on FB told me that they did it last week with thier baby and she slept through night that night.. I laughed really hard... and then went and turned Liam Couldn't hurt.
I did a google search and it was soo silly. It's based on the fact they they have thier days and nights confused and that they need to be re-wound like a clock
P.S. If he sleeps through the night.. I will stop laughing.

Cant wait to hear the results!!!
Have you tried swaddling?? That works best with my DS... he sleeps much longer swaddled than "free"

Re: craziest old wives tale I have ever heard.
UPDATE.. Didn't work!
But, apparently I did it wrong. I just spun him in his bed while lying on his back.
But I needed to hold him in front of me and spin him.. I guess upside down?? Only once A bit scary!
However... we are making progress. Last night he went down at 6:30 (really long day of fighting naps) and woke at 10:20 and 2:30 and woke up at 6:30. Not so bad. There used to be another feeding squeezed in there.. He dropped it the past few nights!!!! He usually doesn't go down until 9pm so I kind of count that as only waking up once.. right?? LOL
Dh actually took him out at 7am when I was done nursing and hung out with him while getting ready for work and he came back and slept from 7:30 to 8:30!
Yeah, I swaddle. It I didn't, he'd but up much more!
