[quote=Anonymous]Perhaps one of the issues is that you went from one extreme to the other (holding baby for naps-crying during naps). There is a happy place between those two things. Definitely create a good sleep (simple) routines and I would feed the baby at 4am. The 4-6AM period is the lightest sleep period for babies and most need intervention. It definitely gets better with age, so 6 months is a little young to leave a crying baby. My first DS would wake at 4am eat and remain awake until about a year old, while younger DD eats and goes right back to sleep. We didn't let our kids cry and they both sleep really well (definitely don't judge those who choose a different path). [/quote]
