[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op my child was a lot like yours
 I am the one who did the contented little baby book.

I followed the schedule there and put my child down for naps at the suggested times. It he cried through his nap so be it
 I took the opportunity to take a shower and get dressed, etc. That didn't last long -- he learned to appreciate nap time quickly. He ate well and slept great on the schedule.

He is a happy, healthy strapping young man now.

OP here. How old was your baby when you did this? The other methods I'm looking at are Ferber and BabyWise. [/quote]

Holy F Op do not do this. I’m saying this as a mom of three with a four month old who sleep trained her second and plans on doing it to number three in a month or two. Your lack of empathy is troubling. Have you been evaluated for PPD or PPA? You are not supposed to want to leave your 8 week old to scream until they vomit or fall asleep from sheer exhaustion. It’s against what is supposed to be your natural instinct. That you aren’t feeling this may mean you need some help or to hire some help. Sleep deprivation does a number on mental health. Please don’t entertain 1960s mom who let their tiny baby scream. [/quote]

OP here. I'm helping him get sleep and myself with sleep training. I didn't post whether I should or not. I posted asking for advice for those who did. I don't need to be lectured about how I'm a terrible person. [/quote]
