J was in a foul temper last night so I started his bedtime routine at 6 instead of 7. It worked and he was fast asleep by 7pm.
He woke for a feed at 11 instead of 12 and then at 3.30 instead of 4am. But he wouldnt go back down!
He would only go back to sleep with me holding him upright. I assume it was heartburn or wind but nothing would come up. He has just finally gone to sleep lying down!
I'm a broken woman, do you think it was my fault for trying to trick him to bed early?

. I tried taking Phoebe to bed an hour early the other night to just try and get her to go to bed a bit earlier but it took 2 hours to settle her inside of the usual 20-30 mins 
and then when I went to bed she woke up and was just generally really unsettled for the rest of the night. I think I tried too much too soon though, like an hour is a big jump. I'm going to try and take her to bed 15mins earlier and just gradually keep taking her 15mins earlier each time. Hope you manage to get some rest soon!
