Many of you parents out there may be familiar with this technique of getting your little one to sleep...I am however not sold... I do admit that this summer we got completely off schedule with sleep habits...with traveling, vacationing, and having a house built next to ours the sleeping environments have not been ideal for night nor day time naps...so with "back to school" here we are trying desperately to get our schedule back! Ethan was sleeping for a solid 7 hours at 5 months now we are back to 3-4 hour intervals and then ending up co-sleeping because FERBERIZING is NOT working! After 1 1/2 to 2 hours of constant crying I usually give in as my heart is in shreds as well as Ethan has lost his little voice...this afternoon I was quite relieved to hear the crying cease at 1hour 15 minutes...then I checked to see what really happened and he must have face planted while sitting due to shear sleep deprivation...so I had no choice but to straighten him out only to be back at square one with the crying! Yikes...hopefully once these teeth are all in sleeping will come more naturally...I'm not sure how much more sleepless days & nights I can take!
