Sleep Training, Night 1:

Last night was a nightmare, my baby will be 8 months in abt a week and up until last night she has been sleeping in my bed with a boob in her mouth. Eventually she started nursing to sleep only then letting go but still sleeping in my bed. Last night I started sleep training and attempted to let her fall asleep on her own. She cried on and off for 15 mins on the timer then I went in to comfort her & she fell asleep on me so I put her back down and kept my hand on her and rubbing her belly and when she seemed to have fallen asleep I walked away. Aafter abt 5 mins she started crying again, I let her cry for maybe 3 mins before going back in and did the same thing. When she cried again it lasted about 5 mins then she fell dead asleep. She slept thru the night until about 5 am, I nursed her back to sleep & back in her crib and she slept peacefully until about 15 minutes ago. Hopefully it’ll get easier soon🤞🏼🙏🏼
