[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10:37 again: it DOES work. I held my babies until they were drowsy or almost asleep and then put them down. For one of my little guys, I had to hold him until he fell soundly asleep. And please note, I am not a FTM....I have four (including an infant), so I know what I am talking about. Guess what? Kids sleep through the night when they are ready, so dont try to rush it by attempting to train them. Many five month olds don't sleep through the night....if he's sleeping for a five hour stretch, then count that a a win. And to the pp who said I was an idiot: I assure you that I am not. I am, however, a btdt veteran mom. If crying bothers the op, then she should pick up her baby and soothe him. This is parenting 101.[/quote]

I'm surprised you don't realize this seeing that you have 4 kids - all kids are not the same. Some babies will fight sleep if held or while trying to cosleep and will NOT sleep that way. They will then become overtired and miserable.

You can tell the difference between a fussy I'm-tired-and-trying-to-sleep cry and a cry that indicates hunger or some other need. If fussing is how the baby falls asleep, so be it. [/quote]
