Any advice for sleep training at 6-7 months? My baby is still getting up about 3 times and wants bottles which I don’t think is necessary at this age. Do I cry it out or what?

@missheatherbaby, when he woke up in the middle of the night he would cry for like 20 mins tops and go right back to sleep

@missheatherbaby, let him cry himself back to sleep , but he has his own room so it was easier

@tiffanyf, what would you do if he woke during the night?

I did it with Jayden when he turned 6 months!! The first night was rough but i just went and soothed him by rubbing his back, do not pick her up or talk !! By the third night he was going to sleep once i laid him down in his crib and sleeping through the night! I’m so happy i did it lol he progressed faster than i thought

@missheatherbaby , not too long. Once you start sleep training the longest i would let them cry for about 15 minutes, but everyday the time would shorten. By the end of the week, all I had to do was lay my kids in the crib with their favorite blanket and pacifier and they would fall right to sleep with not even a peep. All my babies now sleep perfect and don't sleep in the bed with me or my husband. That's another thing my husband and I will refuse to do is co-sleep with them. We like our bed to be kid free. Exactly how my folks were with me.

Honestly hun, its up to you. Everyone has certain opinions. Crying it out method is what I did with my babies. And now my daughter is about to be 10 months old and completely goes to sleep easy and stays asleep all night long until around 8 in the morning.
But of course, others might see that as wrong. But I sleep trained all three of mine and I'm very glad I did.
So honestly you can do it your way, or get everyone else's opinion on it or Google it or even talk to a peditrician about it also

@mckenziesmummy, I’m also a nanny for twins. They are currently 5 months, and sleep through the night with no night feedings. My pediatrician told me my daughter shouldn’t get up at all either.
