Hellobee Boards

I just wanted to update on our sleep training experience!! It has gone REALLY well...the first night, LO cried for 20 minutes (with checks at 3, 5, and 7 min) and then went to sleep...he woke up at 1am, cried for 3 minutes and then put himself to sleep (and then I accidentally woke him up but that's another story...) and slept til 6!

night 2, he put himself to sleep no problem, woke up at 130, I nursed him, woke up at 5, cried for 23 min (with checks at 5 min, and then he was mainly just fussing), and then slept til 715.

night 3, he put himself to sleep no problem (at around 7pm) and slept til 5! He then went back to sleep til 730, when I woke him up for the day.

I by no means think that every night will be like last night, but I feel SO positive about the whole experience and am a total Ferber convert So if anyone is debating, I say go for it!! There was so much less crying and fussing than I thought there would be.

@mrsjyw: thanks!! I really am so happy we decided to go for it.
