[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did it with a 2.5 year old and ngl it was heartbreaking. I definitely regret it. My now 7 yo still has some anxieties I think resulted from the sleep training methods. I started with all the gentle stuff and obviously a solid routine. Hired a consultant and tried a hybrid of sleep lady shuffle mostly with other things like rewards charts and so many positive approaches but by the end the consultant was basically like "I have no more ideas. You can try the not as gentle approaches or you can give up".

Sunk cost fallacy and all that we ended up crying our way through it and she did eventually stay in her room and sleep like a dream (still does) but at what cost to her spirit and our bond? [/quote] that’s because 2 is late to be doing this. I however sleep trained at 5 mos and my kid slept great from then on. She’s 10 now with no anxiety or social issues. I still read to her at bedtime and we snuggle and are loving, she will also happily go spend 2-3 days at a friends house. [/quote]
