: : my baby will be 4 months next week and he cannot go to sleep on his own. i know he used to me rocking and cuddling him to sleep. recently we tried the Ferber method but i could not stand him crying for so long! so of course we failed!! he just cried and cried. even though we checked on him every 10 mins or so, he would not go to sleep!
: : Please advise!

: Hey there, I have a 17 month old and he has never gone to sleep without me, as for letting him cry it out - I have to tell you, any doctor or expert that says it doesn't do any harm is full of it. At least as far as my son is concerned. Everytime I delayed going to him he got so upset he vomitted all over his crib. I think as long as you have a happy, healthy child you did not fail. I do what I can to keep my sanity since I am a stay at home mom and our son will not even stay in a room with his daddy if I try to get some sleep. I just lie him on the floor and give him a bottle, most times he just curls up and goes back to sleep on his own and we put him back in his room. Hope things work out for you - Aymee
