Question for Sarah:
Did you anything different with your son before sleep training at 3.5 months? Or did you do the same as with your daughter? I have a 2 yo who had a lot of sleep issues (and the reason why I found this board) and a newborn. She will be two weeks old on Wednesday. I guess I am a little traumatized by what happened with my oldest and am terrified of creating sleep associations...but can they be avoided? My newborn for the last three days started waking up after I lay her down...and nursing to sleep...and not staying in the bassinet (which as you know means co-sleeping). I have a Moby wrap and I am afraid to use it. I don't want her to love it so much I can't put her down! I keep thinking that these weeks go by quickly and that I need to do anything I can to get her to sleep since I can't do any training at this point, but still, I panic. Being as you have been there, done that, I would like to hear more about your experience.
Thank you so much!
