I use gentle techniques to help babies and children to sleep. If you need support to help your baby or child sleep (not controlled crying) then please contact me.
@MarleighGraceHein I have a, now, 5yr old with autism. Starting at 6mths, 5 minutes was the max that I felt comfortable letting him CIO. He really had to be taught to go to sleep & stay asleep. Establishing a bed time routine I found to be very helpful, along with a routine for what I would do when he woke up crying at night. You really just have to try different things to find out what will work best for you and your daughter.
@prplepokadotcow thank you very much, i have tried to start a bedtime routine with her but it hasn't worked as well as i would like it to. i hate leaving her after she wakes up in the night...hopefully i'll find something soon...how is your little guy doing?
@MarleighGraceHein I'm sure you'll find something that works for you both soon. You just have to remember to be patient with yourself and her. It takes time. Sometimes my son still has a bad time at night. And I still follow the same routine. I go and check up on him to see what is the matter and give him a chance to put himself back to sleep once the problem (if there's is one) is taken care of. It doesn't happen too much anymore, thank goodness. Just hang in there. :)
Okay, so my baby is now 18 months old and I tried for the first time to put him awake in his crib & stayed with him. he screamed bloody murder for at least an hour while I stayed with him... I tried laying him in my bed and me lying beside him. Still didn't help he was crying from exhaustion until I rocked him to sleep telling him a story. So is 18 months still rushing? He still wakes 10 times a night. How am I supposed to teach him to become a good sleeper if I can't lay him awake?
@puhutes Don't beat yourself up. Is it possible your baby has acid reflux or some pain condition? I would say that 18 months is *not* too soon to try and get him sleep trained, and I'm more of an advocate of attachment parenting. But your son is over a year old. It's time. You have to get some sleep, too.
Physiologically, a baby's brain is not ready to sleep through the night. It takes some time for brain development and plasticity arrangement for a child to be ready for sleep through the night. This is rushing a child into sleep - and is unacceptable. This pediatrician obviously does not know enough about a child's brain and its development.
This is neglect. So sad that people leave their little babies to cry :( You shouldn't have a baby if you aren't going to support their development, and that includes emotional.
..geeze...ohhh they could feel abandon ohh god no says the 10 year old kid peeing his pants an crying for mom every two seconds. let your kids grow up..you cant baby them all the time, does ur mom an dad still come get you when u have a ngihtmare? jesus.
This idea works well to help babies sleep providing there is no other issue preventing sleep, they are older than 4 months and it is not continued for any longer than 1 hour and is repeated for every sleep.
This is the Ferber method which is the standard Cry it Out method. It "works" for a lot of kids in that they stop crying and eventually do sleep which is nice for the parents; but psychologically speaking this is referred to as "Learned Helplessness"... meaning they learn that their cries mean nothing, so why bother.
@bhailstone Well, you probably haven't watched the video carefully - the woman in the video recomends that the baby didn't fall asleep in your arms so it wasn't surprised to wake up in another place - simple as that.
@nieoceniona commenting myself - well it came out I didn't watch the vid carefully. Look for this article in google scholar: Cry It Out: The Potential Dangers of Leaving Your Baby to Cry
@bhailstone This isn't true. They don't think their cries mean nothing... they will still cry to indicate they're hungry or hot or cold or that they're in pain, but they won't cry at night in hopes of Mommy or Daddy picking them up.
Thank you so much for the advise. I watched your video last week and tried it withing a couple of days throughout the whole week. I had some restless nights, but guess what? My daughter, already one, is sleeping more throughout the night and does not expect a feeding several times a week and does not wake up screaming or demanding for us to go into the room to sooth her. She seems to have learned some patience. I believe we have almost reached our goal. I would give it maybe another week.
you can try turning them over on their back and gently repetitively patting them on the back. keep doing it until they doze off. this really works. they taught it to us in one of my pre k classes
@deborahwa Usually they say at 3 months. "sleeping through the night" actually only = about 6 hours. It is essential to keep your milk supply that you don't go longer than this, and that you wait past the 6 week mark before going longer than 3-4 hours at night. Check with your local La Leche League for tips- they've been most helpful!
