| My bub WANTS to be put down to sleep on her own since she was four months old. I don't think it's the norm because I know many babies who are rocked/held/driven-in-a-car/etc to sleep. I'm not smug about it - on the contrary, I miss holding her when she is sleeping. If I do that, she'll arch her back and cry.
Btw, she uses a pacifier, which may be her way of putting herself to sleep. Occasionally she rejects it - particularly when she is tired. |
