There are many solutions to the “unwilling to go to sleep” issue: heartbeat-background music, low lights, swaddling, shushing noises, etc.
We hauled the swing up to the bedroom, and pop him into it the minute he’s done eating. Worked like charm Monday night: 5.5 hours! Worked for 30 minutes on Tuesday, but apparently I have the Magic Hug, since he was out like a light within 5 minutes of removing him, shrieking, from the swing. And BAM! another 5-hour stretch.
Or, maybe, the growth spurt he may well have been in last week is over. Who knows? At least we’re getting rest again.
Other than the pre-sleep fussiness, he’s basically been a joy.
