Help with sleep training

Hello I started controlled crying on Saturday with my 15 mo - it was going great until last night he just would not stop crying at 1am for over an hour, have to admit I gave up in the end and brought him into my bed which I know I shouldn't have but I'm exhausted. I'm just wondering why on night 5 he has suddenly gone backwards when it was going so well. I had 4 nights of my own bed and a generous amount of sleep, he was in nursery yesterday so I'm wondering if this is why? Thanks

I don’t know why exactly, but I’ve read that between nights 3-5 of sleep training there can often be a “regression.” It happened to us. Just try and be consistent with your settling method and it should pass.
