Sleep Training

6/24/07

Dear Eliana,

We started to sleep train you last night, and you did great! We fed you, gave you a bath, fed you again, made sure you had a clean diaper, rocked you for 10 minutes..then put you in your crib and let you put yourself to sleep. We thought that you might cry for hours..in fact, you cried for about 10 minutes, I went in to change your diaper, your cried for a few more, and then went right off to sleep. Wow! It was about 17 minutes total, way less difficult than we had thought.

Pretty much the same in the middle of the night. You woke up at 12:30 and went right back to sleep after some milk. At 2:15, you woke up again, cried a bit, and put yourself back to sleep. Good work girl!
