Something to consider…if you know she has been fed, has a clean diaper, and isn’t in abdominal distress, let her fuss when she stays awake at night. I discovered that my efforts to make my babies happy often resulted in them becoming more awake and staying up longer than when I made sure the above criteria were met and then let them fuss a little (I know, it is REALLY hard to do that)as frequently they drifted back to sleep and started getting their days and nights more on my schedule.
She is a precious girl and I know how much you two are enjoying her presence in your lives. Congrats!

She’s still so adorable! I hope you get more sleep! Though these days, I’m walking around pretty sleep-deprived, I can only imagine how you are feeling! Lots of love to mommy and baby!

Ahh, the good old day/night mix-up. I don’t miss those days… During C’s mix-up time, once it was morning we would turn on the bedroom light, and then if she was up a night we’d keep just turn on a small bedside light to keep things dark. And if it’s warm enough, try to take her outside during the day as much as is feasible. Until then, sleep when she’s sleeping, and like most parenting things, this will eventually pass… And ditto on the thank god for co-sleeping. It rocks.
