We have a bedtime routine that includes bathtime from daddy &amp; we do nurse to sleep although many nights she's still semi awake when I lay her down.... I also don't expect her to sleep through the night any time soon and we co-bed &amp; nurse on demand after/if she wakes up.</p> <p>Daytime naps are a completely different story. She generally gets sleepy after being up for a couple hours but rarely naps very long or well. I may start some nap training after she's 6 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-youwill-you-sleep-train#post-267246 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 21:55:14 +0000 Mrs. Pen 267246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We nursed to sleep for awhile. I didn't feel comfortable doing an actual sleep training method until LO was much older. We started 9 days ago, and he turned 6 months today. I think it was the perfect time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-youwill-you-sleep-train#post-267239 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 21:47:29 +0000 junebugmama 267239@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nursing to sleep, doesn't mean you're not sleep training. Nursing to sleep could be part of your bedtime routine. </p> <p>Establishing a routine is what is most important. We have a routine, LO will be 3 months on Friday, and 6 out of 7 days, he is asleep when I want him to be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-youwill-you-sleep-train#post-267194 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 20:58:21 +0000 Mrs. Confetti 267194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>mine is also three months and we are trying to form good habits but also not ready for genuine slep training (my husband was dying to do CIO at 3 months exactly but i don't have the heart for it and just don't think he's ready. so far we have started a bedtime routine and putting to bed early, both of which have been going well. I think we will work more on self soothing closer to 4 months... good luck!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-youwill-you-sleep-train#post-267188 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 20:49:32 +0000 BeachMama 267188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It seems everywhere I look, everyone has a different age that they sleep trained at.</p> <p>LO is 3 months and definitely cannot fall asleep on her own. She always needs to be nursed or bounced to sleep. And she cannot be soothed without picking her up - she won't take a paci, and gets more upset if I pat/stroke or talk to her. I'm not sure if she's ready for full on sleep training, but I feel like I need to start teaching her healthier sleep habits.</p> <p>When did you or will you sleep train your LO? </p>
