My friends, my family, our pediatrician and even my husband was telling me that it was in the best interest of my son to let him cry himself to sleep. After 4 months of sleep deprivation I agreed to give it a try. The first night my son cried for almost 2 hours. What was even worse was that I cried right along with him, albeit from another room. It felt so cruel. All he wanted was his mommy. I refused to ever do that again. By the time he was 8 months old he was sleeping 6 hours a night. However when he turned 13 months and my daughter was born……guess what? He began to wake up every 3-4 hours in the middle of the night to cry for mommy. Do you let your baby cry to sleep? How do you feel about it?
