LOL at the grapes. Thanks for the review. I'm not really after affirmation, i know that crying techniques are not for me. I guess i have kinda realised with my DD that time is the biggest changer of things. Just started wondering if i had missed something early on that would have made a difference to her sleep....

mmm, will have a think about it. i liked her books, but similarly didn't get a lot of practical advice other than i was doing the right thing. i can see that it is working, and the advances in sleep improvement are happening, just very slowly...
