That's great Dee, glad it worked for you. You can get a lot more done when the baby is in their own bed!

Hi all,
Raspberryjam - I feel for you, my bubs is exactly the same. She sleeps fine at night 11-12 hours with one wake for a feed, but is a shocker during the day, always has been. For a while I was ok with rocking / feeding to sleep, but I want to get away from that and get her to self settle. I am not keen on the CIO method, but controlled crying sounds better. I've read all the posts and tips, and will try a mix of CC, VR and putting her on her side and patting her bum. And try and become a staunch mum who doesnt cry too much cos her bubs is crying.
I would really appreciate a PM (or a post here) with a summary of what you tried and how it worked. I'm not quite at the end of my tether, but its getting close.
Thanks.

oops sorry I forgot about this...
so this is never ending!!! I am actually just leaving her in her bed to cry now though, so I have 'mumed up', it usually only lasts 20 mins tops, but if it goes wrong it goes sooo wrong and I cant bear it so I pick her up, but its only if her cry i such that I feel her pain. Cant stand the thought of her thinking i dont love her
I have put her in her sisters room, she is almost as bad at three!! so they can just cream at each other - lol, no my thinking is they have company and so far they havent woken each other up
SO what has worked for me so far is routine, so she is down at 9.30 / 10.00 and again at 1.30 / 2.00 - although the afternoon sleep is usually the one that goes wrong so I dont think Im up to telling you how toos twotravelbugs, but I did have a good read of the sleep store discussion page again just the other day actually and it really helpful so maybe check it out?
One thing though..Crafty, if she has been down for a little while and I know she has no wind do you just resettle them or ignore them and hope they go to sleep or just get em up?
