[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I literally cannot fathom thinking that a couple hours, max, of crying for a few days is somehow more cruel then leaving your child to be extraordinarily sleep deprived for weeks with no end in sight.

I also can’t fathom prioritizing a half day preschool program over an infant getting any restorative daytime sleep. How if your baby supposed to learn and grow like this?

Something needs to give in your day so your baby can nap. Period. Figure that out. Then, especially if it was going better before, night sleep might even out on its own as your baby moves out of her exhausted state in a couple days. Otherwise, CIO. If you prefer checks, that’s fine. I recommend The Sleep Easy Solution, but any system will do as long as you’re consistent. [/quote]

I can't fathom how you don't understand that CIO doesn't align with my beliefs. I also can't fathom how you don't understand that CIO will be much harder on the baby than average since daytime nap schedule is not practical at this time.

Lastly, how can you not fathom that the needs of all of my children are important to me? This includes my 3 yo in a half day preschool program.

The naps are a moving target at this age. In a few moths shell be down to two naps and I can perhaps make those work at home. Once she goes down to one nap this won't even be an issue.

Thanks so much to the few of you that offered helpful suggestions.  The rest of you mommy shamers can suck it. [/quote]
