[quote=Anonymous]I put on another thread recently that for me, expectations are premeditated resentments. And when I want something really badly and it’s not happening, I get anxious and angry and I think babies pick up on it. You are a great Mom and obviously trying to do what’s best for your baby. When putting the baby down try to remember to take deep breaths and calm yourself, it can help calm the baby.

Babies get some of their best feeds overnight so I kept feeding both of mine until they were over a year (but I was lucky to be able to co-sleep.) To those who say babies don’t need to eat overnight, it can make day feeding easier. I found both of my babies needed more night feedings when I went back to work and they had to take a bottle during the day as they enjoyed meals and probably got more from the breast.

If you decide to stop trying Ferber, I’d highly recommend a Facebook group like Biologically Natural Infant and Toddler Sleep. In a world where everyone is boasting about babies sleeping through the night, it’s a place for parents to go when that’s not happening and remember that it is ok to and very normal.  This is only a small season. [/quote]
