: My baby doll is 9 months old and sleeps terrible!! ALWAYS has! Fusses and fusses every hour. Used to use pacifier, stopped that at around 6 months old. Now she wants you to place empty bottle in her mouth or she wont go back to sleep. I let her fuss, and cry for 45 minutes a few times, she wont give in! She is just the happiest, sweetest most lovable baby when she's awake, BUT SHE'S DRIVING ME CRAZY! Yes, she sleeps in our room w/ us in her crib. Because she has Reflux, and she projectile from time to time, caught her girgling on her back many of times. Should I do the "crying it out thing"? It seems so cruel, and she doesn't seem to give in, AND I JUST WANT TO GO BACK TO SLEEP? Ok, I asked for it, let me have it, LOL! My ds also had MAJOR reflux, up until that age. If she is still having problems with that, that may be a reason she does not sleep well. My ds at 1 still doesn't sleep well, and I think it has to do with the reflux and what he became accustomed to. I would suggest, if you are not overly concerned with the reflux to let her CIO... If she is in your room still, you need to make it so that she can not see you... doesn't help at all! Good luck!
