[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. He was at it again last night, first around 10pm (DH held him while I finished up some work, then I went in and nursed him and he finally gave up and went to sleep in the crib), then again at 3:30 (I went in to offer the feeding that normally occurs around 5 or 6am, but no luck, so DH just held him until 5:30). He fussed some in the crib at 5:30 but after a few minutes laid down and went back to sleep until 7. We'll start implementing a consistent plan on Friday, since the grandparents are staying over tonight. No idea what that consistent plan will be, since this thread seems to be split between "CIO" and "don't CIO because that will make the separation anxiety worse." Sigh.

Meanwhile, I'm here at the office on scraps of sleep, trying to prep for a hearing and also squeeze in time to study for the bar. Send coffee, please. [/quote]

Try pick up put down. It's always worked better for us than CIO, and you don't end up with them falling asleep on you. If they fall asleep in the crib, it's so much easier for them to self-soothe later.[/quote]
