Has anyone done sleep training with their LO or plan to?

Question

Answer

Someone posted this in the feb babies board (I was due feb but gave birth in March) and I totally agree with it. Personally I think CIO is child abuse and most experts would now agree. I’d highly recommend reading ‘The Gentle Sleep Book’ by Sarah Ockwell-Smith for gentle and developmentally appropriate solutions to baby sleep.

Answer

We bedshare and I love it. And I don’t wanna hear anyone’s opinion on it

Answer

I will start at 4 months! 🤞

Answer

I nurse my son to sleep every night, he sleeps 10-6, wakes to eat and back down till 10. He did this on his own and I see no reason to change it. Sleep training wouldn’t work for us as our work schedules constantly change and I want him to know he is always welcome in my arms/bed until he’s comfy again

Answer

Didn't do it with my first and won't with my second. I love that time rocking my babies to sleep and trust me they grow up so fast that it will seem like it's done and they are putting themselves to sleep before you know it. 
Everyone has their own preferences and I don't judge CIO, just not my preferred style. 💜

Answer

I'm starting at 4.5 months

Answer

CIO works for some families but I won't use it with mine. 
Co sleeping with my daughter and enjoying great restful nights because I don't need to get up - just pop the boob out and go back to sleep. 😏 I want to enjoy my baby's infancy as long as possible. She'll only be small for so long.

Answer

Never worked with my first. She started sleeping on her own at 2 years old. I expect my son to do the same

Answer

We def will. We did cry it out w my daughter around 6 mos. it only took two or three nights and maybe 20 min total of crying and then she did sooooo well.

Answer

6 months I'll start :)
