not sure what's up...but none of the links worked for me, so i can't help ya out with the dress selection.
we let emri cry herself to sleep at 5 weeks....it lasted about 5 min. of course there have been other times that were longer, but i think it is worth it to have a good sleeper!
and seriously....who would cheat on sandra bullock??? what a loser.
Afffffffffff... Só vestido bacana. E isso de vc poder fazer do seu jeito? Que idéia legal!!! Bjs
Okay, I LOVE all the dresses! Seriously can't decide which is the best!
And on a different note, we let Crew cry it out at 6 months old. HE IS THE BEST SLEEPER NOW!!! It was sad for the first 2 nights, but by night 3 we were basically good to go.
Here is my thoughts on the situation {which I realize every mom is different} but in order for me to be a better mom, I needed a full nights rest and so did my child so I actually felt like I did Crew a favor. Do whatever you think will work best for you and your little family.
We did CIO with Justyce around 7 months old when nothing else worked. I couldn't bear the thought of doing it when she was any younger, it seemed like she didn't have the understanding to absolutely know sleep time is sleep time.
She is 2 now and still whimpers a little at bed time but I think she is just a real stubborn kid!
my fave dresses are 1 and 3!
cry it out method? Yes it works, but your baby is much too young. Neurologically (I can't spell)she won't "get it" right now. Wait a few months. I like the gradual cry it out method. Let her cry it out for 5 minutes and then work your way up to 20 minutes and then one hour...but wait until she is older like 6 months.
sorry, this is Ruby not Kevin ;)
We tried a bunch of different methods with Elena. Of course she never got the whole "day time" "night time" scenario, so we're working on that too. I've read the best time to leave them in their cribs is around 2-3 months. I tried it with Elena then but couldn't do it. She didn't like it, and I didn't like it. I've gotten a lot of books suggested to me about sleeping habits and none of them worked. The main point I see with all of them is to make it a habit to have a bedtime routine and stick with it, and put baby to bed so they know its time for bed and its not just a nap. I however tried doing bathtime at night, baby massage, pjs, singing, praying, reading - everynight for a month and she still did not get it and would not go to sleep on her own. Sooo... the only thing we haven't tried thus far is letting her cry herself to sleep, so we're going to try that out for the week and see if that helps. Last night she cried for 75 minutes before falling asleep, but she went to sleep at 10:30 and didn't wake up once until 6 am. (she normally goes to bed at midnight-2 and wakes up 4-5 times after that. She's a terrible sleeper) It's hard on me to listen to her, and it is not on James - so he's the one who goes in and checks on her and I just put my headphones on or do my work or go sleep on the couch and he wakes me up when she's asleep. It really is a heartbreaking thing and I fought it for 9 months, but I'm with whomever it was that said I think you just function so much better when they learn to sleep better. Plus I have a cousin who never taught her son to sleep on his own and he's 4 almost 5 now and still doesn't sleep through the night. I think that's a little extreme too. So, do what works for you. If you want to try out some of the other methods I could send you over some links if you want. I tried them all a few times with Elena but she didnt like them, but Maybe your girl would.
i love number 1:)
