Drowsy but awake

Kari

Anyone starting gentle sleep training (NOT cry it out!) but more or less teaching baby to soothe themselves. My boy is 10 weeks old. We have both a great day time (wake, eat, play, sleep) routine and bedtime (bath, massage, swaddle, feed). He’s been doing great on this for 2 weeks now. However, still waking frequently at night (every 2-3 hours; only hungry and feeding once). I’m assuming because he cannot self soothe. We are “late to the party” on laying him down drowsy but awake, as he has battled terrible acid reflux. So we were rocking him and holding him upright for 30 minutes after eating. My question is - am I too late to start this? I don’t want to make him overtired from this either as we JUST got out of that sleep debt once we established routines. Anyone starting this or plan to? Any advice would be AWESOME! TIA :-)
