I even went to a specialist and he taught me <a href="http://www.sleep.com/content/how-to-sleep-with-your-eyes-open" rel="nofollow">how to sleep with your eyes open</a>. It's an exercise for those who are deprived with sleep.daniellaprice30https://www.blogger.com/profile/13744488430222426685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448400579749380283.post-175071866275600992012-04-25T22:19:27.782-05:002012-04-25T22:19:27.782-05:00I stopped nursing both of mine around their 12 mon...I stopped nursing both of mine around their 12 month birthdays, but also not being a fan of CIO we did the "no cry sleep solution" by Elizabeth Pantely. It worked great for Ben and Bella has always been a good sleeper.Martahttp://lostandforgotten.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448400579749380283.post-81250270443390862382012-04-23T14:07:28.019-05:002012-04-23T14:07:28.019-05:00No sleep is so tough!

I was happy Judah was a better sleeper and I attribute that to co-sleeping and nursing. We're going through a sleep regression of sorts and it's making us both crazy- we expect it with a newborn or an infant but not a 30 pound 20 month old!The Slacker Momhttp://www.theslackermom.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6448400579749380283.post-52888658871672866672012-04-23T10:38:50.399-05:002012-04-23T10:38:50.399-05:00We didn't do CIO either, but when we transitio...We didn't do CIO either, but when we transitioned P to her crib, there were a couple of moments. What worked for us is the projector (as discussed before), and we would go in if she woke in the middle of the night after a few minutes, lay her back down with the bink and blanket, rub her tummy, and leave when she was calm. It was kind of important for us to give it a few minutes because sometimes, she just needed to fuss for a second and go back to sleep, but there was no all-out crying. The crib is new for Harper so it's obviously going to be a little uncomfortable at first - right along with learning to self-soothe. There are ways to do it gently though.Stephanie Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01919567549815729360noreply@blogger.com
