We chose the "good" 2.5-4mth window and it worked amazingly well :) I was scared just by reading about the 4mth regression and wanted to avoid it.</p> <p>I think the most important thing is to train when sleep is reasonably OK and there's nothing else (illness, teeth, regression) going on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-age-for-sleep-training#post-1892110 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 15:04:47 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1892110@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Jass: Mrs. Bee wrote a great post on the ideal ages for sleep training! <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2012/03/23/when-to-sleep-train/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2012/03/23/when-to-sleep-train/</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-age-for-sleep-training#post-1892067 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 14:43:05 +0000 Lindsay05 1892067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For both LOs, it just naturally occurred around 4 months. It wasn't necessarily planned that way, we just decided that running to babies crying multiple times a day/night wasn't for us. Worked wonders for both children. But you are a different person and you will find what works for you! Hope you get some relief soon :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/best-age-for-sleep-training#post-1892052 Tue, 07 Oct 2014 14:33:29 +0000 Jass 1892052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My lo is 4.5 month old and terrible sleeper. Cannot transition from one sleep cycle to other. Wakes countless times for pacifier during night as well as naps. I want to sleep train her but dont want to do this process again and again due to teething and othet developmental stuff. At what age should i sleep train, any advice </p>
