With how rough it's been going with my munchkin my biggest weakness is chocolate, b/c it releases endorphins that make me feel better, at least briefly. He's frustrating me to no end. I know he's not in pain, that he's just wanting to be held and cuddled at night and to not have to sleep in his own crib, I don't know where this new thought of his is coming from. I let him cry for 25 mins then went in and got him. He fell asleep on me, so I put him back in his crib, well the crying started again. This time I did not go get him. He cryed and howled as much as he wanted to but I ignored him. After an hour he fell asleep. To top it all off, my vertigo may be coming back b/c I've been so nausiated and my head does feel a bit funny. We'll see how it goes. Gotta get some sleep, we had another long night last night and he has swimming lessons tomorrow so we both need a good nights sleep.

i learnrd with mine its when their faces hit the cold shet as you put them in bed that wakes them, any way you can put yr cot near yr bed and you can pat him or hold his hand as he starts to get unsettled, I know the new thing is seperate ooms but here in Ireland babies are nearly always next to parents bed, In Hong Kong, all my relatives have their babies sleep with them, (lack of space) and it does not spoil them, you would get a better sleep and every few weeks move cot a bit farther from your bed, I lived in a tiny flat for my first 2 so had a cot on either side of bed, and they turned out very independent men. You do what you feel is good for you and yr child, and books/friends/medical people dont know it all. You sound exhusted, and full of guilt because you left him cry so long, and I bet you did not sleep even after he slept listening out for his breathing after all that crying, Ive been there so know the feeling, so think bout moving him in next to you.

I've tried to sleep with him in the same room and he makes way too much noise in his sleep. I don't even have the monitor on anymore b/c I don't get any sleep at all. I think it's just a seperation anxiety phase that we are going to have to work through.
