I did it!

Guys this is a big deal for me. I know many of you already have your sweet babes asleep for naps in a crib or bassinet. Well we have been struggling to get baby girl to nap independently for several weeks. I’ve had to hold her for hours just to make sure she got her sleep for the day. It’s been so hard because I also have a 3 year old who doesn’t understand how to leave mama alone when she has to put baby down to sleep so he constantly interrupts the routine. Today I decided to leave her for 15 minutes. I usually only do 10. After 15 minutes, she had stopped crying so I thought she would sleep. She turned to her tummy and started wailing again. I went in and was ready to pick her up, but instead gave her a pacifier and rubbed her back. She fell asleep in seconds!! I’m so happy that this is possible. My first coslept for a full year with us, so this is a huge deal! Wanted to share with you all because I find this group so helpful and supportive. I DID IT!!!
