[quote=Anonymous]I don't think the baby will "learn" to keep crying past 5 minutes if you periodically try to see if they can self-soothe. I remember one time, early on, needing to put my baby down to run to the bathroom. And I felt awful for leaving my crying baby. Except, he was sound asleep by the time I got back which was probably about 5 minutes later. Everyone has their limits on what they can and can't handle. I'm not someone who could handle doing full on CIO, but just giving a kid 5 minutes to settle is not CIO at all. [/quote]
