They suggest never nursing to sleep, but rather nursing upon rising, then having activity time and putting the baby down again when it gets sleepy but not falling asleep in your arms. This I say at 37 +6 days pregnant. Ask me again in a month! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-anyone-planning-on-sleep-training#post-123571 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 20:17:24 +0000 heffalump 123571@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We didn't. But we just started having lo nap in her crib finally at 8 months. She used to need movement and we were going to try just picking her up and comforting her if she cried. But she never cried longer than a minute. Crazy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-anyone-planning-on-sleep-training#post-123434 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:36:36 +0000 katdevargas 123434@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Bee: oh, devil. yes, I'm sorry.

Anyway, it was a great post :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-anyone-planning-on-sleep-training#post-123431 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:34:30 +0000 Mrs. Bee 123431@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@katdevargas: do you mean this post that i wrote?</p> <p><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> <p>i know our icons are confusing. i'm going to change it soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-anyone-planning-on-sleep-training#post-123412 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:25:06 +0000 katdevargas 123412@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>oooooh yes, we will definitely be sleep training. soon, though? in another 7-ish weeks, is that soon? at 2.5 months, based on that chart mr. bee posted in the blog a while back. I've got to read up on some of the methods, though, &amp; want to check out that book that he was talking about in the post. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-anyone-planning-on-sleep-training#post-123411 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:24:46 +0000 Rubies 123411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not (we already did!) but my friend just sleep-trained her third child (she sleep-trained all of them!) and she said that the heartache of the two nights of training is preventing her from having a fourth child (which she had planned on having). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-anyone-planning-on-sleep-training#post-123406 Sun, 15 Apr 2012 18:20:58 +0000 Mrs. Bee 123406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>because i am planning on sleep training olive in the next couple of weeks! i'm going to try some gentle methods with short caps on crying. </p> <p>we used to be able to put her into the crib awake, but now she wants to be dead asleep and naps and bedtime are becoming increasingly difficult.</p> <p>she just recently started flipping onto her tummy in the crib, so i'm just giving her some time to master flipping back over because she gets stuck and cries.</p> <p>anyone planning on sleep training anytime soon? </p>
