@peruss Thank you so much!

@peruss I appreciate your advice. I feel like until the 8 month regression, that was almost what we were doing? I would feed, then place him in his playpen crib in our room and he would sleep, and the first time he woke up to feed, I would nurse him and place him back to sleep independently...

@tinywings Oh interesting! Thank you! That's great! Can I ask what age he was when you started this? Did dad give him water in an open cup? (This is how he drinks water now) I find that when he wakes and I'm settling him unless I sent him the breast and rock him for half an hour, he doesn't...

So here's my situation: FTM to an amazing little boy who will be 9 months on the 11th. Since his 4/5 month sleep regression where he went 7-9 hours sleeping straight without waking, he has been refusing to sleep in his crib (playpen with mattress) and waking up every 1-3 hours in the night. We...
