Sleep training

Brittany

So I’ve read babywise and ‘healthy sleep habits, happy child’ and I was trying to occasionally put my LO down drowsy but awake. And trying to get naps set when she looked tired. And working on a loose feeding schedule. But nothing too serious because we were going away.

Well on vacAtion her naps went to hell. Everyone wanted to ‘help’ by pushing back her bedtime and picking her up at every little whimper. Now we’re home and I wanted to get more into sleep training so I’m not rocking her and walking her around her room when she’s 20 lbs but I can’t even put her down for bed. She takes 1+ hour and a dozen false starts to get in her crib. And there’s no whining to wait out. She goes from ‘I thought she was asleep in my arms’ to crying hysterically in Less than 2 seconds.

Idk if I want advice or encouragement. Maybe both? This is going to be a long and rough road I think.
