this is the age we used the method with ds1 and it worked really well - 3 nights and we've hardly had a bad night since (he's 2.7yo) (early wakings excepted)
ds2 is a shocking sleeper. we've tried anything and everything. shh-pat worked for a week or so. we're now back to square 1
we are comfortable with using cc now he's 6mo. i know many of you think it's plain wrong, btu it's the decision we've made
ds2 and i are decamping to a spare room tonight (far from ds1) so i will be in the same room as him
i plan to go to the cot after 5 mins and just make shh-ing noises and rub his back. is that right - can't remmber what is suggested - is the back rub too much intervention?
