CIO: Revisited

Oh yes. I was warned. In my endless research about methods to get PB to sleep, I was warned that crying it out was not necessarily a one time thing. I was warned that illness or teething could derail all our previous efforts. And man, is this train off track!!

PB was sick a couple weeks ago. Runny nose and coughing. Oh, the coughing. I just could not bear to leave a sick baby to cry and, thankfully, it's not even recommended. So we rocked and patted and sang and (gasp!) brought the baby to our bed.

And here we are again. Starting from square one. I won't rewrite everything you've already read. It's not going any differently than before. Actually, it's eerily similar to the previous go. And just as heart-wrenching to listen to.

But as I write this, PB is sound asleep. After only 13 minutes of crying and one check to lay him back down.

Wish us luck, folks. We are determined to have this PB sleep in his own bed all night. And by "all night", I mean.....all night.
