Sleep Training

Crystal

Hello everyone! I have some questions about sleep training... first, I have an almost 4 month old and a 4 year old. With my 4 year old we did sleep training when she was 4 months old because her sleep was terrible! It took her about a week and her sleep became much better. Well, I thought her sleep was terrible until my second came along. My almost 4 month old is taking 30 min naps throughout the day and up every 1.5-2 hours at night. She has been doing this since 2 months old. I’m done!!! We have a routine, she sleeps in her crib in her own room, white noise machine, and blackout shades. My worry is that she is much more persistent than her older sister. I don’t want to start sleep training before she’s developmentally ready but I’m at my wits end! My questions for you are...

If you have done sleep training, what method did you use?

At what age did you start sleep training?

Did it work for your baby?

What other things have you done to get your child to sleep better if you didn’t do sleep training?
