We've got Jude trained up to go to sleep on his own since a few months old,(3rd child!) and he usually wails a minute or two and then chatters himself alseep!

B...I didn't think I would be a CIO mom either. But Brody was a HORRIBLE sleeper. And by that I mean he was up every 40 mins. If we were lucky it was an hour and a half but that was rare. We did sleepeasy too and I was surprized at how fast he went to sleep the first night too. It sucks to do it but it does work. Brody now sleeps 11ish hours in his crib. <br /><br />I'd love to hear an update on how it's going.Christynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9183329826513383244.post-11340725848053981772009-12-17T07:42:56.871-08:002009-12-17T07:42:56.871-08:00Sleep.

At 17 months, Eli developed some strong seperation anxiety that has really affected his sleep. So much so that he did a dive, head first out of his crib 2 nights ago and we had to do the sudden switch to a big boy bed. Yikes! So, we are back to square one with sleep. I ended up in his bed with him last night, we'll see what tonight brings....Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08257158719504962519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9183329826513383244.post-39028377116992825822009-12-16T15:01:11.683-08:002009-12-16T15:01:11.683-08:00Hannah is a terrible sleeper. The only time she s...Hannah is a terrible sleeper. The only time she slept well was from 0-6 months when we had her in bed with us. The transition to the crib was PAINFUL! I'm not a CIO Mom either, so I tried a million things and it seemed like it was never going to happen. I can't even remember what worked now though... I nursed her, then Alan rocked her was our eventual routine. <br />This April we got her a "big girl bed" and made up the other room for her. The transition was amazing! She loved her special room and bed so much that we could just plop her down, give her a kiss and be on our way. Unfortunately that was short lived. To this day, bedtime is a war, usually involving hysteria, bargaining, pleading etc. To top it off she also gets up once or twice a night at least 3 times a week.<br />Evan, on the other hand, slept with us until 9 weeks when he moved to the crib (for the most part). He's easy to put to bed, even if he's awake, and I'm starting to think the sound of his sister's tantrums is his preferred lullaby. He does wake up twice a night to nurse. I've had people tell me that when he wakes at 1-3am that I should ignore him and he'd stop waking at that time, that's not going to happen. We'll figure that one out as we go. <br />I'm glad to hear that your first night went so well! I'll send sleepy vibes your way tonight, and hope you have another positive expierence. Good luck!Heathernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9183329826513383244.post-49616910914280603962009-12-16T09:35:34.576-08:002009-12-16T09:35:34.576-08:00Well Gabrielle is a pretty good sleeper. We're...Well Gabrielle is a pretty good sleeper. We're blessed as she's pretty much slept thru the night since about 5 1/2mths... BUT we did have to do a form of Sleepeasy at around 8mths or so as she all of a sudden wouldn't go to sleep at night. I hope tonight goes just as well and gets easier!grimeysgalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16060818646958865533noreply@blogger.com
