...and all I have is a massively overtired miserable baby. Does this really work? Grateful for any experience or advice.
DS2 is 6 mnths. Was in our room until last week and typically in our bed. Generally breastfeeds to sleep day or night.
I need to get him to sleep in his cot and to take naps without me lying with him for half an hour as I'm not meeting DS1's needs at the moment. I want to do this as gently as possible, esp as he's so used to being beside/on me.
I'm currently breastfeeding him as was worried he might be dehydrated after the last couple of hours of crying. Seems so harsh to start the rigmarole of putting him down again but unfair not to given the last 2 hours.
So... Does pupd work?Is 2 1/2 hours too long and a sign it wont work? It feels like a tortuous routine for him.
Have just put him down asleep so put him through all those tears for nothing. And will have to wake him in 50 mins for school pick up.
