[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We personally did not do CIO at that time, because the book we used said at 5 am they don't have the sleep pressure so truly will just cry the whole time which wasn't comfortable for us personally. But we didn't get baby out of bed before 6 am so would usually do checks (but we were doing checks anyway) and some comfort at that time, but would just reiterate it is still nighttime, would keep curtains closed, quiet, etc, would try a feed if needed. Our book said once they've been in bed 11 hours that is a fair amount of time in bed basically, as many don't sleep beyond that so for us that was 6 am. It gets better op! 4.5 months is still very little, a feed at night is normal for many and like another pp said both my kids dropped it on their own. [/quote] Oh and I will add, the sleep consultant we used with our second said that you don't have to be as worried as some say about "confusing" baby by having some responsiveness. Both my kids sleep trained well while still having feeds. [/quote]
