[quote=Anonymous]I don't remember the sleek training books that well but I feel like you definitely do not have to night wean before you sleep train? Just keep the feedings to set intervals and don't go in before that. I think that's what Precious Little Sleep said. OP - you can try to go more gradual as the PP recommended or less gradual. I can tell you when we sleep trained at 12 months I initially tried a gradual approach and I could tell it was confusing for DD. She had gotten used to being bounced to sleep and when we tried cutting down on it she would wail even if we were still holding her. That's how I knew that the gradual approach or Ferber checks would just not work for her. Full extinction with no checks was magic. It's okay to efeel it out with those gradual approaches and see how your baby reacts, before you commit to extinction which requires total consistency.[/quote]
