self-soothing

Twice today Ryleigh has self-soothed! She got fussy, I put her in her crib, she fussed until she found her fist, and then she laid there sucking on it till she fell asleep! Yay!
At night time I usually feed her and cuddle with her until she falls asleep, and then I put her in her crib, so I really didn't think she'd put herself to sleep.
She's still a little cat-napper though. This morning she slept just long enough for me to take a shower. I'm guessing her current nap will last until I'm done checking my email.
At least she sleeps at night! :-)

I never heard of 'self-soothing'. Or maybe it was because none of mine had ever been able to accomplish this feat. Probably because they're boys. Ha!
