my daughter just turned 7 months. she is my first baby, so obviously I held her all the time when she was born. I held her to go to sleep which was a big mistake because now that's what she wants. in fact she cries to be with me all the time. how can I start making her go to sleep on her own and sleeping on her crib all night by herself? its so hard to let her cry it out because I feel like I'm a bad mother with letting her cry. helppp!!

My daughter is 7 months too!!! She sleeps by herself in her crib but I started crib training at 3 months. Here is how I started. Laying her down in her crib at nap times to start. Make she is good and sleepy with a full tummy and lay her down BEFORE she falls asleep. Make sure you lay her down when she is nice and relaxed and calm. If she takes a pacifier give it to her and let her fall asleep in the crib. Mine faught sleep bad so I had a blanket that I wore under my shirt with me scent on it so they felt like I was there and lay them on it. If she fusses that's fine. I could never do the full cry it out but if the baby is just tossing and fussing I let them try to fall asleep on their own. DO NOT PICK THEM UP unless they are screaming, console them, rub their back and talk softly to them and see if they calm down on their own. It will take some time but before you know it you will lay them.down and they will fall asleep without crying or fussing and sleep great!
thank you. I'll definitely try that! @karnamarie
