    My babe is 6 1/2 months and has never sttn. Right now he goes to bed around 6:30-7pm, I dream feed him sometime between 10-11, he wakes around 4am for a quick feed then around 6:30am for the day. For me, it is much less time/effort to just nurse him for the 4am feed than to give him a soother and rock him to sleep. I think he's legitimately hungry at 4am so I'm OK with it. I can't imagine someone telling me that I "shouldn't be hungry"... so I don't think I should do that for him...

    LO is 10 months and we had some glorious nights back before teething hit where he would sleep from about 7:00-5:30 but that's all a distant memory. We haven't done any sleep training and when he wakes up he either gets nursed or rocked back to sleep. Most nights I just bring him into our bed when he wakes up. We may need to start thinking of techniques to help him go to sleep on his own pretty soon but I feel like with teething/being sick/learning huge new skills he's got a lot going on and I love the snuggles. Every now and then he will sleep through the night but when he wakes up it is only once and we're ok with that.

    DS1 was 2 years old. DS2 is 23 months and he STTN almost everynight now. We cosleep though, which makes it easier for me to deal with the wake ups. We never sleep trained because I dont like the idea, especially CIO, and I'm lazy at night.....its always been so much easier to just cosleep and nurse on demand.
