Cry-it-out is a no no and controlled crying dubious before one year but why??

[MrsMotMot]

I have fuzzy recollections of cc being controversial and CIO even more so but in my totally sleep deprived state I can't remember why... anyone?

Oh, just found this thread so will wade through it!

LOL Are you having trouble?

There are other ways of getting sleep if you're creative.

Hi Moonlight, thanks for replying, I think you're on that looong thread, unless you just have a similar celestial name?!

I tried Tracey Hogg's pick up put down thing and we both ended up sobbing and DS (11 months) was profusely sick. If PUPD is a 'middle ground' as the author suggests, then there is no way I can CC or CIO. Last night was physically painful, hearing him cry after 11 months of every need met as and when they arise!

Definately not for me!
