Hello,
I wonder if anyone had any advice or suggestions on how to get a baby
to sleep *not in my or my husbands arms*. Maybe this is impossible, we
have been trying everything, EXCEPT letting him cry it out. He is used
to being nursed to sleep or bounced by my husband. if we leave the bed
or put him down, he wakes up almost immediately. He sleeps really well
when we are holding him or sleeping with him. As he gets older (he is
6.5 months now) it is getting harder because he doesn't just fall
asleep when he is tired anymore and I have been napping with him and
going to bed at like 9pm.
