@Crystal thank you i will give it a try , feeling guilty is eating me out and she start to cry strong
How old is baby? They don’t recommend sleeping training till at least 6 months as it can do more damage than good, a baby needs comfort and caring for when they are crying and distressed. By doing cry it out it actually does the reverse effects and isn’t emotionally good for them. I know it can be rough but I’d try ride it out and be there for babe when she starts to cry strong as you stated in the message above x
Sorry for the typos, the message was dictated 😫, but if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to send me a message.
Try bouncing on a yoga ball, lots of over the shoulder rocking. Maybe adjust the feeding times. For breastfeeding, the milk is stronger 11pm-7am and the melatonin naturally helps the babes to feel sleepy. Hope that’s helpful x
Hello Eja, We tried the crying it out method with our baby and it was hard, especially for me (it took 3 attempts) but we got there in the end. We started to recognise the times that she’d get tired, so we’d bathe her, feed her and put her in the cot. I read that you could leave the baby crying for up to 45 minutes but that I wasn’t going to do that, so I set a 20 minute timer, told her good night and that we love her amd left the room 😫. She she started off by taking around 17 minutes to go to sleep and then daily/ every other day it started decrease by 2 to 3 minutes. She now falls asleep in couple of minutes as she has now learnt to put herself to sleep. Was sceptical about sleep training but it really worked for us. Hope this helps.
