| I tried controlled crying last month and it didn't work. As most of have said, my 7 month year old now crawls up and down his crib and can even stand. He definitely was teething, but occassionally he would have complete outbursts, but still be asleep which leads me to believe he was having some sort of nightmare. I would just pick him up and shush him back to sleep.
I am weak and have failed miserably at any type of crying down techniques. At first, I am very into it, but then by the 3rd night I just cave in....
I figure my son will sleep through the night when he's good and ready - - i hope it's just not when he's 3 years old! |
