I'm on day 2 of cry-it-out. I don't know if it's her adjusting from vacation or what, but she's been IMPOSSIBLE to put down to bed at night. She's fine for naps, but bedtime is different. As soon as i leave the room, she'll start crying. I thought today might be better because she was silently sucking her fingers (awake) when i left the room, but 15 minutes later the crying began.

I have 5 more minutes before i go to comfort her. I was so sad last night when i went to her. I picked her up because she was crying so hard and she just sounded so pitiful...i wanted to cry, and I never thought I'd be that way when doing cry-it-out.

Please tell me this is worth it in the end. Today she seemed less happy than usual and it made me feel guilty like the crying-it-out was the cause.
