So much for a schedule...

[Jojo]

yeah that did not work out at all :lol:

He took one nap that day and was completely exhausted by night time. I finally gave in and let him sleep in our bed all night long. All night!

Yep. I'll do whatever I can for sleep and worry about it when he's in HS and still crawling into our bed.


Plus, I love waking up to him snuggling in my face :love:

Which one did you try? It can take a few days to get them into the swing of things.

I hope you can figure something out soon! Hang in there! The fog will lift soon... :support:

Do what's right for you, just don't give up. It may not work the first, second or even the fifth day, but after that it should. It took us 5 days to sleep train Charlie and I have to say...I love putting him in his bed at night and being able to just walk away knowing he's happy being in there.

[Cindy]

I agree do what's right for you guys! And remember it won't happen right away. Unfortunately these things take time! Hang in there Mama!

[Heather]

Yes, unfortunately it does take lots of time. Sorry it didn't go well for you! Cohen slept in his swing alot for the first two months of his life. Whatever it takes, right?

[Jojo]

I figure I'm going to wait until he hits the 3 month mark. Right now, we really just need to sleep. It's so hard to stick to anything.

The only thing I tried was the CIO method. It's the only one I really know how to do. Not sure how it will work because this guy can scream but at least I know if he's older he can "handle" it.

I made a schedule for the EASY method. Maybe I Just have no patience. Plus that day I had to go to the doctors for my cold sore (don't laugh!) and it screwed everything up.

I hear ya Jo. Good luck at the 3 month mark, we're there and she still refuses. She went crying forever, it just didn't end. She does not care if we leave her there, she does not stop. We do have nighttime down, it's just naps. I'm thinking I might get creative, and try to do a schedule with putting her in the moby for nap time, and then transition to the crib. We'll see.. LOL.

Whatever works though, go with it. I think you have to be really committed and patient, and that's tough when you're exhausted (or have another kid to deal with too!). Hopefully he adjusts on his own easily for you, or you find something that works! :support:
