[quote=Anonymous]We sleep trained our first at 13 weeks and our second at 14 weeks. Up until that, I co-slept and nursed my babies at night. Neither of my children was an amazing sleeper, but you get through it. We never had a night nanny and we didn't have family close by or family who helped. It's three months of your life. Not to be flip, but if you want a kid and you can't figure out how to cope with the sleep deprivation aspect of parenting for the first 12 weeks of your child's life than you probably shouldn't have kids. I'm currently pregnant with my third and A LOT of things keep me up at night, but definitely not the sleep aspect. You need to be less controlling and more willing to go with the flow. And I say this as a type- A controlling person who started exercising almost immediately after giving birth because I am so controlling. If I can do it, a lot of people can do it. [/quote]
