Cry it Out

My kiddo was so good at sleeping. Slept through the night 10 hours at a time! Then she learned how to roll over, scootch to the corner of the crib, and bang her head against the bars. (I have a breathable bumper, but still.) I love how mobile she is, but seriously, child, you're exhausted. Just sit still and sleep. I could show you how to sleep. All you have to do is zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzwha? Oh, sorry. I just nodded off at my desk.

Got some great advice today from a friend of mine about sleep training: turn the monitor off and let them cry it out. She mentioned that it's hard with the first kid to use this technique, but it gets easier as you have more kids.

As this is my one shot at parenting, I am going to use all the advice I can. This way, I benefit from other people's hard-earned experience without actually having another kid. Genius, no? Bwahaha.

So cry, Little Bit, cry. Not gonna get me down - I'll see you in the morning. I'm way more fun when I'm rested, trust me.
