So I've posted many a time about my DD's sleep and that I didn't know what I was doing wrong etc.
Until 5 nights ago she had been rocked/bounced to sleep for every nap and bed time.
5 nights ago I had had enough, and put her in her cot, sat next to her. And waited.
The first night it took hours, and we were up until 1am.
Tonight it took 10 minutes. And each night has had NO crying. 
Here's hoping that soon it'll help her actually stay asleep and in her own bed, and that she'll soon do it for naps (haven't tried that one yet)
