@hiskid47 Yeah, it’s just so hard. My husband and I revamped our plan over the past hour in the middle of the night. I’m lucky to have a supportive husband who can stay sane and think straight when our baby is crying… On another note, though, your baby sounds like a unicorn to me for ever...

@brogodlovemensah I feel you — my baby has also been waking up more than she did as a newborn. We’ll get through it.

@zigelets Thank you so much!

@zigelets Thanks. I know there’s no choice but for it to get better eventually… but that’s easier said than done. I sometimes get a little annoyed when people give me that knowing look and say how it’s part of having a baby and they all went through it. We quickly forget how it feels to be...

@seekinganswersinlife That does seem to be the consensus… my husband is more comfortable with the idea of methods that involve more crying and we will likely have to revamp our plan.

@yarrariverchristian Thank you. This is very helpful as it sounds most like what my husband and I would be comfortable and able to do.

@yarrariverchristian If you don’t mind sharing, what exactly did you do? I feel like you just perfectly described where we’re at right now.

@yarrariverchristian Yeah definitely the longer this goes on the more okay I will have to be with some crying if I want us all to eventually sleep

@jahlive Thank you, this was very very helpful and encouraging. I appreciate you sharing with me. These past few nights I’ve definitely noticed how the sleep deprivation affects not just us, but my baby too.

@john127 Thank you!

@john127 As hard as it is to hear I know you’re right…

@refinersfire Absolutely. Thank you for affirming that I can sleep train without crying it out

@shane26 Thank you. This made me feel better!

@nonamend We came up with a plan that involved a combination of fuss it out and then pick up put down, but we’ve since scratched it. The cutoff time was to avoid overtiredness. I think we are going to try something along the lines of the sleep lady shuffle now.

@onlybythegraceofgod Really great advice. Thank you!

@mommymallie I could’ve written this comment. Thank you!

@carlo1 Thank you! I think my optimism is what holds me back from doing CIO or even Ferber. Every night I think everything will magically get better by itself

@carlo1 Very well put. Thank you.

@japaul Thank you, I think we’re going to be trying the sleep lady shuffle from now on.

@sasquace Thank you for this comment
