LMW cut her first teeth so even though sucking soothes her, she'd suck a few times and cryyy cry cry because her gums were so sensitive and painful. Subsequent teeth would be ok to sleep train with I think because they're constantly teething until who knows when!! Whenever one tooth breaks through, usually another is on its way, so you will never find a "good" time to sleep train. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447615 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 16:05:20 +0000 Bao 447615@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would still go for it, I don't think you missed the window and I don't think teething is an issue when trying to sleep train. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447614 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 16:05:08 +0000 Mrs. Bee 447614@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mamajaja: here's a post i wrote about it.</p> <p>how do you know when to sleep train? that's a tough question to answer because there are so many factors -- how bad your lo's sleep is, how exhausted you are, etc.</p> <p>i'll write a post on it asap. i have a lot of thoughts on it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447609 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 16:04:24 +0000 mamajaja 447609@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T-Mom: haha yes! I'm at the point where I can't take it much longer and I know she can sttn, she's done it many times before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447604 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 16:01:59 +0000 mamajaja 447604@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: no they are not her first, she has had her 2 lower teeth out for a month now. </p> <p>Is there a reason subsequent teeth are ok to sleep train with? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447598 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 16:00:02 +0000 mamajaja 447598@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: yes please do! I hope I didn't miss that window either! LO is 7.5 months and just mastered rolling both ways too. So I'm finally ready to use sleep sack with her too. </p> <p>How do you know when it's ideal for your LO? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447542 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 15:36:25 +0000 HabesBabe 447542@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: Oooh, I would love to see that post! LO is 5 months old tomorrow, so I'm waiting 2 more weeks to start sleep training to be in the "best" window! Not to mention, I'm taking off two weeks for the holidays, so I can do it right and not rely on my mom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447538 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 15:34:52 +0000 Mrs. Bee 447538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>ps -- you made me think of a post to come on sleep training in the ideal time period. we didn't with charlie and we did with olive, and it made a big difference! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447533 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 15:30:55 +0000 Freckles 447533@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree. You can't really be sure she's teething. I've been saying that LO's been teething for the last 4 months! I would go ahead and sleep train. Better do it before she gets sick! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447456 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 14:48:54 +0000 T-Mom 447456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with @Mrs. Bee. Teething goes on forever, it's impossible to avoid. Sickness, I definitely would avoid with sleep training. Even though there is kind of an "ideal" age to train, the true "ideal" time is when baby is able to sleep through the night and you can't take it any more! :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447454 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 14:46:40 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 447454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Like @mrs. wagon said. Also, if you're worried about it, I would maybe give her some teething tablets or Tylenol before bed to hopefully alleviate any waking due to teeth. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447448 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 14:43:25 +0000 mrs. wagon 447448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>are they her first teeth? if so I'd wait until the first one or two broke through. If they're not her first teeth I'd go ahead and sleep train. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447445 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 14:42:30 +0000 Mrs. Bee 447445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i would still sleep train. if they're sick i'd say no, but i'd still do it if they were teething. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-i-miss-the-cio-window#post-447324 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 13:39:50 +0000 mamajaja 447324@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 7.5 months, and we've been prepping ourselves to start sleep training (and swaddle weaning) this weekend. However, she has been showing pre-teething signs the last two days for her upper teeth. Does that mean we will have to wait until the teeth come out to start sleep training? I've read that you shouldn't sleep train when they are teething.</p> <p>I'm a little worried since LO didn't actually cut a tooth until a month after her first pre-teething signs. I'm not sure we will be able to last that long =( She's been getting harder and harder to put down and doesn't stay asleep as long as before either. I'm also worried that we'll be missing the right timing for sleep training, as I've seen on HB that an optimal time is between 5.5 - 7.5 months.</p> <p>Any advice would be appreciated! </p>
