sorry I'm late but yes a warm cereal bottle did the trick, he didn't even want his pacifier @mooncable

any luck @nasirmommy

we have don't it b4 and it worked after about 20 llooonnnggg minutes. I think im going to take him in his room and trying the boppy BC he is so sleepy he don't know what to do, that way he won't cry long and just go to sleep @valerie_jean

What @valerie_jean said

It's a good method. It might take a couple days for him to get it, but he should be able to with your help👌🏼

It's advised not to let him sleep in the boppy, but yes totally let him cry a bit it's Goode for their lungs &Good; for them/you

You can try the cry it out method, but don't get too crazy. Just try 10 minutes at a time. Play a noise maker, set him in there and if he cries give him 10 minutes. Go back in there and rock and soothe him and try it again. It's hard to hear him cry but you can try!

ok question ladies: is it OK for me to lay him on his boppy pillow in his crib and if he cries just let him self soothe or what BC I really don't want him getting used to mommy and daddy bed @valerie_jean @setsailann

I understand girl my son was the same for like 2 months straight 😳😳 He liked to be swaddled though, he hated his crib and it took SOOOO long just to transfer him in his crib. I had to put the boppy pillow under a blanket in his crib so he could lay in it and be snuggled up. That's how I tricked him lol.

Have you tried to let him self smooth?

but he's barely 5 months @valerie_jean

ugh I hope not. but hopefully I can sneak him into his room after he's asleep. @setsailann or I might just suck it up and let him sleep next to me. but I really want him to learn to sleep alone @valerie_jean

Maybe he's teething? I'd definitely try that noise maker though. My son went through colic and that's the ONLY thing that calmed him down, and still does to this day! When he wakes in the night I play it and puts his ass back to sleep.

I don't think it's something you should contact your doctor about. My son has his moments where he wants to be rocked to sleep, some nights he doesn't, some nights he fights his sleep like crazy. Babies are spontaneous and a guessing game.

He may have gotten used to sleeping that way?

@mooncable,

it happens every so often. we are running out of options to do and I really want to get some sleep in my bed and NOT the couch

if this is not normal for him contact the doctor. The little one my be trying to tell you something.

ugh @valerie_jean

😂 I have went thru the checklist more than Santa lol he doesn't lik to be swaddled, he doesn't have colic, he might be hungry again but that's the only thing I can think of

Swaddle, noise maker (search Baby Got Colic on YouTube), uhmmmmm burped, fed, dry booty? Lol going through the checklist 😂
