I tried. I tried and tried. My husband tried and tried. But Birdman just cried and cried. Then my heart broke. Into a million pieces.
Therefore, this whole "let them cry it out through the night and they'll be sleeping like angels in no time" experiment is on hold. Until further notice. P.S.: No one dares tell you how incredibly grumpy the children are the next day and the next and the next.....they have conveniently left that part out!
That being said, the Birdman is doing fantastic! He is darling, and fun. Rolling to and fro. Playing like crazy. I will do a Five and Six Month update this weekend. It will be full of rolling, food, words, walking, reading....I bet you can't wait!!

Second...perhaps I am simply a big doughey wuss bag, but I'm ok with that.
No, I was thinking more along the lines of cotton headed ninny muggins....at least for me! Oh well. I just can't do it! And I am OK with That!
Sweeties! Send me your actual mailing address and I will send you the best article EVER on how to get your baby to sleep ~ no crying it out! It worked like a charm for Dana, and she's been a champion sleeper eversince. The baby...he just sleeps all the time, so...:)
That method definitely isn't for everyone, but it worked with one of ours. I hope Beckle and Freckle's book solves all your poblemos, because it sounds like bedtimes sucks. Hang in there. Just remember that you are the boss of him.
Liz, your baby is the cutest thing ever! I hope you guys are doing well. I haven't talked to you in a while but we are moving out of AZ to SLC. SLC isn't my first choice to live in but I am slowly inching my way closer to my beloved Idaho!!
I'm so sorry. We totally sympathize. Crying it out worked with Tyler but Lisa was crying the whole time (45 min the first night, then 15 min, then 5, etc). We tried it with Zane but he made himself puke from crying so hard. . . EVERY TIME!!! Good luck!
