Yay for a good night Lee. I hope you had another good night last night. Good on you for doing things your way and saying to h*ll with what the "helpful" people tell you is right. All the books out there now that give such rigid timetables should be burned. Babies do what they want, when they want and leaving them to get distressed and cry for however long isn't going to teach them anything but that Mummy and Daddy don't love them enough to come the second they're needed. My little girl was sleeping through the night 90% of the time by 3 months and is now sleeping for 12 hours straight overnight. If she does wake she has a feed and goes straight back to sleep. So many people hear that and say "Oh, isn't CC great". I've never CC and never will. We get horror nights like everybody else, only a lot less of them - still don't resort to CC. I'm just lucky to have a baby that is a great sleeper, is secure knowing that the second she needs her mummy she's there's, and that the world revolves around her. I honestly don't believe how quickly bubbies sleep through the night has anything to do with what their mums do - its when they're ready and not before.
