We do bath jammies milk too (bottle) but he is never dead asleep when I put him in his crib at night. Seems to work ok right now though naps are a disaster. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310505 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 20:16:15 +0000 Mrs. Pen 310505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thehistoryofus: that's what I was doing because it makes him drowsy. but I think it's hindered his sleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310492 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 20:09:48 +0000 T.H.O.U. 310492@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It is so easy to nurse to sleep but I realized I was not teaching her and giving her the opportunity to fall asleep on her own. We still nurse last (bath Jammie's milk) but I stop before she is all the way asleep. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310478 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 20:00:17 +0000 Mrs. Pen 310478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cvbee: I think that's what I did wrong. I originally was nursing first, then bath, pjs, books, song and prayers. It has gradually evolved into bath, pjs, books, song and prayers during nursing. bahh!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310472 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:54:42 +0000 cvbee 310472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Coco Bee: say it aint so!!!!!!</p> <p>Okay, @Thehistoryofus: you have just given me a good warning. I was totally guilty of nursing to sleep by accident tonight. I think I need to switch up bedtime routine so the nursing doens't come last. If I have to do CIO all over again I will be so upset about that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310460 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:32:59 +0000 T.H.O.U. 310460@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just finally got to the point (when she was a year) that we decided she did not need calories at night. I nursed her and offered an extra bottle to make sure she was full and then put her down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310457 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:27:03 +0000 Mrs. Pen 310457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Thehistoryofus: I know! It's so hard. It is SO much easier to go "rescue" him and just nurse him to sleep. But I just think about when I wean - how will he fall asleep?! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310455 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:25:39 +0000 T.H.O.U. 310455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww I'm sorry. We have had to cut bad habits that keep creeping back into our bedtime routine (like nursing to sleep). Its tough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/cio-2#post-310452 Tue, 25 Sep 2012 19:24:24 +0000 Mrs. Pen 310452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For some reason Cobi hasn't been going down very easily at night. We sleep-trained about a week before he turned 6 months, and he is 7 months now. His sleep this last month has been absolute perfection. We've all been such a happy little family!</p> <p>But this past week he won't go to sleep very easily, he cries so hard. So I end up going back in to nurse him. Last night I nursed him three times in less than 2 hours. This has happened many nights so it's time to CIO again..</p> <p>Tonight is our first time going it again and it's just miserable! He is a lot worse than our initial CIO a month ago!!! We went straight to extinction as that's what worked for us last time.</p> <p>Anyone have to sleep train multiple times? How did it go? </p>
