Help!! Ever since a few weeks ago, we discovered that LO (4.5 months) will only fall asleep if i put her down.
We have been slowly working on it, and she will fight DH a bit when he puts her down for a nap, but will eventually go down. But bedtime is a totally different story. Today DH did the entire nighttime routine but when it came time to rocking her to sleep (the last part of our routine) she started screaming. I left the house and came back 30 minutes later to find her still crying! Each time he tried to put her down, she would look around and then start wailing. For the sake of her sleep i took over and puther down in 5 minutes.
I am afraid that if we dont fix this soon, i will never be able to leave the house during bedtime. Should DH commit to getting her to sleep, even if it takes an hour? If he hands her to me after unsuccessfully getting her to sleep, will it signal to her that eventually she will get mom? Anyone experience this before?
