[quote=Anonymous]I’m not the PP with the child who was resistant to sleep training but my experience with my oldest was similar. We also attempted sleep training and hired a consultant because we were desperate and it was terrible but saw some improvement. Until the next developmental milestone. The thing about some kids is they have to be trained over and over and you have to be willing to do it. We were inconsistent but did always have DC1 in the crib- never once let them into our bed. Around 2.5 things clicked and that child has generally slept through the night but has consistently had a hard time falling asleep and had lower sleep needs until they were diagnosed with ADHD and put on clonidine (which also helps with sleep). My second child was totally different. Never fought sleep the same way and we did a much more gradual and nicer approach to sleep training *because we could *. It was a very different experience. This kid does still occasionally wake up during the night at 5 but at a level I can live with and usually related to illness or something. Both kids are really low sleep needs though. That’s just how they are.[/quote]
