Okay girls, let me say this is my LAST RESORT. I dont like cry it out. Ive never been good at it. It breaks my heart. But my god, i have the most stubborn 5 month old known to man. She will scream swaddled, unswaddled, laying side ways, upright, held, rocked, bounced, patted, rocked-bounced&patted at once. And she just crys every night from about 7-12. Her cry ranges from low pitiful wine, to voice shaking screaming. She will fall asleep then i set her down and no matter how long i wait to set her down, within 15 minutes shes crying again and were at it another 2 hours.. Then shes out till 4-6am then back out till 8-9. She naps at 11 & 3/4 oclock and thats all. I dont know if i should just lay her in the crib, let her cry and check on her every 5 min? Do i leave the room while shes still crying? Every night the weirdest things calm her down. Last night was the swing, tonight is laying in our bed just talking by herself. We cannot keep at this crazy play by play at night. Its becoming very tiresome. She doesnt sleep without being rocked or held or something. Just needing advice on what i can try or do as terms of a gentler cio. Being "spoiled" so to say isnt working but neither is our somewhat schedule. So any and all opinions or tips/tricks are appreciated!
