[quote=Anonymous]The book Bedtiming is great on this - goes through child development and why sleep training will or won't work at what ages (that book is where the 5.5 to 7 months part comes from). According to them Ferber works best at that age, but it is hardly the last window of opportunity. There are several more ahead of you, up until your child is around 3 1/2 I think. I do remember the part in Weissbluth where it says babies may need a feeding up until 9 months, but that's only some babies and not all. I'd think a baby who is eating every 2 hours at night probably needs at least 1 of those feedings. I have no advice on how to tell what crying is for a "needed" feeding because my baby's only 3 months and I'm still just trying to do my best to read her.[/quote]
