Sleep training help?

Question

Hi mamas
My boy is 7 months old and it’s becoming more of a battle getting him to sleep each night - can take like 1 hour+ to get him to sleep. He has a bedtime routine but just will not sleep. Please could I have some advice on how you’ve sleep trained that doesn’t necessarily involve CIO? 
Thanks in advance.

Answer

In your same boat...

Answer

Sleeping sucks in this household too. He fights sleep every night. I've forgotten what solid sleep feels like. We are waking nearly every hour. Every 2 hours on a good night. Sooooo no advice but you aren't alone.

Answer

I was completely against the CIO until I had that same issue. We did a very loose interpretation of the CIO because I just couldn’t wait the whole 10 minutes but now I can put him into bed and within 5 minutes he is out. You have to find what is right for you.

Answer

How much wake time does he have before bed? What about naps?

Answer

Check out Taking Cara Babies! I’ve gotten a ton of helpful information just from her instagram. She has blog posts too. We didn’t do her class because my daughter was already a great sleeper, but I’ve learned a lot from her. She’ll answer questions and stuff, too.

Answer

I recommend joining the Respectful Sleep Training/Learning Facebook group. It has been so helpful to me in sleep training my daughter.

Answer

My daughter is the same. I just go with it and start like an hour before in advance because of it
