"Tough Love"

[*TripleJ*]

i will say i did it with Jamie he was just a pain and it was getting OTT but i will say that it doesnt work for everyone but i guess u technically could call it whinging it out coz he didnt really cry he was really just being a pain

YOU do what YOU think is right dont listen to them

I have also stopped talking about sleep to anyone and if they talk about it with me or ask about DD sleep , always ''hhmmmmm'' I just don't want to hear it any more, i do not want to let my baby cry that it up to me , why do they need to try and push it at me that their way is right

Ypu do what works for you guys hun, thats all you can do, try and just block all the other talk out i know its hard xx

I guess when people ask, I just tell them. I need to stop being so forward with information when I know that I'm not going to like what I hear when people comment.

It's like, when they offer their "solution" then I can't complain about it if I'm not willing to do something about it. You know what I mean?

I think I just need to stay away from people at the moment. LOL

Hey Sweets, my advice is that whichever method works best for getting YOUR baby to sleep is the best approach for YOU & YOUR baby. If your baby prefers to be held, rocked, bounced, pushed in the pram, fed, whatever - so long as you can get that baby to sleep - then that's the most successful way to get them to sleep.

Every baby is different & just like us we all have different likes & dislikes. What works for one baby doesn't always work for the next.

You do what works best with you. Remember that the more stressed you get, the more stressed bub will get, so if letting you Bub stresses you out, then it's stressing Bubs out as well & therefore that's not the best avenue to take.

Sending you much love & hugs - this is such a difficult 'topic' amongst parents!!!

Love Jayne xx

I love the gentle parenting people who do the CIO method

Gotta learn to not talk about some things with certain people UNLESS you want to hear all about the right way to do things with a baby coz of course your way is the wrong way and you're making a rod for your back.

At least you have us to chat too. I cannot let DD CIO for any longer than 2 mins even when I am furious with her antics at 3am.
