Cry it out going on 3 hours?
Has anybody had their baby do this? He fell asleep after 35 minutes the first time but when I went in to check (we sleep in the same room and I wanted to take a nap too) he was snoring but with his face against the crib. So I tried to move him and of course he woke up. Tried to get him back to sleep now for 2 hours and he won’t stop crying. I had to stop and give him a bottle in between because he was due for more food and he’s underweight so I can’t just skip it.. so I just keep waiting for him to fall asleep? I’ve bought books but I’m so tired I can’t focus when I try to read them so they haven’t helped much.
Edited to add ; I’m a shit mom. I went to check again because he stopped crying after an hour and half and he was standing in his crib having pooped. So o had to change his diaper, brought him back into the bedroom and pulled him into bed with me and he fell asleep. Not sure this whole crying it out thing is the miracle everyone claims it is. I don’t know if I should try again or call it quits and just realize I’ll never sleep again.
