Opinions on the crying it out method ?? Note : I do it from time to time but only when Aiden has eaten , has been changed & cuddled & napped & nothing else has him calm . So I just let him cry himself back to sleep . I would like to know how other moms feel about it ..

it's definetly hard. but it helps. I had to let my son cry when I switched to cosleeping to his basinet. I would make sure he was 100% okay. disper, fed, cuddled, checked to see if he was gassy, everything. if he was still fussy, id let him cry. 5-10 minutes later he would relax

I didn't do it until my son was about 6 months old but I let him cry for about 5 minutes unless it's causing him to gag/cough.

@allyk.xmommy, @clothdiapermomma @sonya15 thanks guys ! I know a few people who are against it & I was too at one point . But my baby just gets fussy . So I just let him cry himself to sleep sometimes . It does get hard & usually feel pretty bad about it. But with some getting used to , it'll be fine .

I personally don't think you should use the cry it out method until they're six months old. the first six months they need something every time they cry. sometimes that need is to just be held. they need to build their trust in you by always knowing you will be there when they need something. after six months they learn cause and effect and then you can start to use the cry it out method if they absolutely need nothing

It irritates me to see my baby cry because she is a skin to skin baby. The dr told me long as she is feed and change its ok to put her in the crib and let her cry.

@xoxoalexusss, I bought fabric and made a baby wrap to tie around me and place my daughter in so she can be on me while I do things when she doesn't want to lay on her own. I know it can't be healthy for her to constantly be on me but I can say it started getting better two weeks ago. She turned five weeks today she didn't adjust well being out of the womb with so much space
