Absolutely Rachel! Let me know how you get on won't you!

I know how worried I was about leaving him to his own devices in there (and I can't tell you how many times I stood right outside the door listening! LOL), but he was/is happy and safe there. But over time I got used to it and Jacob seemed to settle himself to sleep if he didn't go to sleep right away and now I don't worry about it at all - he will sleep when he's tired by putting himself to sleep as soon as I pop him in the cot, or if he cries, then I go straight into him and help him to sleep. So at nap times, my motto became "happy = hands off, crying = hands on"!!!

Good luck!
