[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the “delusional” PP. You would be surprised how many parents have shared with me that they also refused to CIO but can’t say it openly because people like you are so judgmental and certain you have it all figured out. One is a neonatologist.

I don’t think my children are “better” than yours in any way, and it says something about you that you phrase things so crudely. What I do believe: my children were exposed to less stress during the first two years of their life. With skyrocketing childhood anxiety, it was worth it to me. I also felt that because I didn’t breastfeed I didn’t want to cut off another channel of attachment—being gently put to sleep.

Please don’t lump all of us in some “mommy martyr” category because it makes you feel better. I hold firm boundaries with my kids and have no issue saying no, never coslept, minimal baby wearing, allow candy and tv, etc. CIO was a bridge too far and my pov is more common than you might think.

We were done with CIO in one night.  So no, it was not years of stress.
