Trying to teach 6 months old dd to go to sleep on her own.
Tried leaving her in cot and going in to settle her every 5/7/9/11 minutes but she ended up crying hysterically even when I went in to calm her.
DH had just tried sitting next to cot singing to her, holding her hand but it didn't work. She cried for 1hr 20mins and in the end he picked her up.
I know I have to persist and keep going but it's too hard to hear her cry.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom?
Thanks :(
