[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I 100% understand- mine literally didn't sleep at all for first 7 months at night and would scream all night if not on boob ( I wrote above that we nick named her boobie). Our pediatrician told us to try ferber at 4 months and was giant fail. The big thing was loading her up with lots of milk during day ( eg bottles of pumped milk).  I believe this is the 12 hours by 12 weeks method too. I feel guilty bc I think I made my kid overly big ( she struggled on growth chart for many months with frequent weight checks and after was super heavy). I assume this is why formula kids sleep better too- they typically have larger portions during day then you'd get at boob.

Thinking of those nights where mine didn't sleep for months still brings me trauma and I definitely wanted to divorce my husband during that time[/quote]

I’m sorry this happened to you too. No one believes you sleep training can fail. These threads attract all the parents of easy babies who want to glibly tell you how easy it all was and how weak and incompetent you are. I am not weak. I’d like to see anyone else survive 2.5 years of being woken up 10-40 times a night.[/quote]
