Really? Music?

So Maggie's nightly wakings have been taking a toll on this mama.  I mean, I know she's teething, and I feel for her.  So last night, I had a different plan.

I put orajel on her gums, and gave her half a dose of ibuprofen.  I had John get PJ in the tub, and I nursed Maggie.  She dozed off while nursing.  She does this a lot, but usually when I place her in bed, she pops right up, bright eyed.  Last night, we went in her room, and I rocked her a few minutes and sang her a little song. I placed her down, and she got comfy and stayed asleep.

Then I turned on the BCM.  But I turned it on the "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" mode instead of "Ocean" like I've been doing.

She slept from 7:30 to 2 a.m.  That was the first 4 hours of consecutive sleep I've gotten in months.  I nursed her, she went back to sleep and slept till I WOKE HER UP THIS MORNING AT 6:30.  Please don't let this be a fluke.  Please, for the love of everything, let it be just how it has to be because I can handle getting up at 2 a.m.
