[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is such a short phase. They soon learn that standing in a crib sucks and they lay down (and cry). We would go in and rub the baby's tummy until she stopped crying and then turned on her einstein monitor. Repeat. Repeat. She learned very quickly that she wasn't getting out of this crib and that we hadn't disappeared forever, but she was sleeping in this crib by herself. Sometimes if it's super bad, we nursed or gave a milk bottle. [/quote] OP again. We tried something like this a few times (halfheartedly and haphazardly, I admit) - leaving him in the crib but trying to comfort him while he's in there, but it seemed like going in and not picking him up got him more upset than if we had never come in in the first place. Did your baby cry harder at first but eventually allow herself to be comforted in the crib, or did she calm down immediately? [/quote]
