Sleep training has begun

In shock

Day 3 of of Project Ferber, and the magnificent Pickle put himself to sleep without crying!!!

Yeah, I’m still reeling.

Night one: 45 minutes of crying, 1 wakeup w/ 60 minutes of crying

Night two: 30 minutes of crying, 1 wakeup (put himself back to sleep)

Night three: NO CRYING AT ALL!!! Number and quality of wakeups remains to be seen.

And oh my god, his mood has been *so* *much* *better*.  It’s like night and day - the cranky little demon we’ve been living with for the past month is gone and my sweet wonderful baby has returned.  I hereby apologize for every smug skeptical comment I have ever made about sleep training.  Sleep training ROCKS.

    I am so glad this worked for you & the pickle. It didn’t for us (with #1 - we were too traumatized by it to even try with #2, who would probably have been more open to it), but I am glad it does for some. A reminder that, as in all things, YBMV.
