The plan is for him to leave this Saturday. I am working on cio for naps and when I first lay him down. When DH leaves Saturday I am gonna work on it for the night time wake ups too.
I am so excited to be getting closer to Saturday. I am despererate to try the CIO for the middle of the night

I have a question.....Why are you waiting for him to leave to do the CIO Chris?
Luis was working when I did the CIO with Charlize and I WISH he would have been home to help me and support me. Just wondering. I know, I am nosey! ;)

Cause Dh does not like hearing him cry. And because he has to get up so early to go to work.

Nicholas has been doing pretty good, he usually sleeps from 7p to 5-6a then eats and back to sleep until between 8-9a.

Chris - we started doing CIO with naps and it didn't do any good. We had to go straight to night time and do it then like our pedi suggested and now we're working on naps. For whatever reason, it never worked with naps but because he was already tired and ready to sleep for the night, it worked after just a couple of times at bedtime. Just an idea! Good luck - I know you are counting the hours until Saturday!

I hope once you're able to send the msg of not going to him he'll snap into an ok sleeping pattern for you!!!

ehhhhhh we're still struggling... this is our main problem, Zach is NOT a stomach sleeper, so in the middle of the night he rolls onto his stomach and then screams his head off till i go flip him over... hes asleep but cant roll himself back over onto his back so he cries for me... i dont know what to do to help him get over that... some nights its better than others and he only does it twice, but other nights (like last night) he does it every hour and its exhausting

Oh Keren - that sucks! Have you tried letting him cry for a little while and see if he'll fall asleep on his belly?
