Even better that you were there to help her through it. It's always easier to do those things with some support! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-cant-believe-i-nap-trained-my-friends-baby#post-1996118 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 14:52:58 +0000 BananaPancakes 1996118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <br /><p><i>This comment has been deleted by the original poster.</i></p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-cant-believe-i-nap-trained-my-friends-baby#post-1996069 Tue, 23 Dec 2014 14:13:47 +0000 Meridian 1996069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sandy: just came across this old post of yours as I'm starting to read up on sleep training. Just wondering, did your friend's baby continue to nap well after this? And how/why did you decide on 5 minute checks? I've read some of your other posts which mention 3 minute checks... Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-cant-believe-i-nap-trained-my-friends-baby#post-1237824 Sat, 23 Nov 2013 01:31:56 +0000 googly-eyes 1237824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow! At 8 weeks I would have (honestly) been very hesitant to do this but it goes to show that all babies are different and all family dynamics are different and I'm glad it worked out! Hope your friend has some easier naps ahead of her! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-cant-believe-i-nap-trained-my-friends-baby#post-1237798 Sat, 23 Nov 2013 00:24:46 +0000 MrsStormy 1237798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So how many 5 minute intervals were there? How long did you have her settle her/ hold her? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-cant-believe-i-nap-trained-my-friends-baby#post-1237782 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 23:52:20 +0000 Cchoi4 1237782@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I wish you could nap train my son. He will cry for a full hour (with checks). :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-cant-believe-i-nap-trained-my-friends-baby#post-1237486 Fri, 22 Nov 2013 20:31:02 +0000 IcebergMom 1237486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow!
