Cry It Out

We had an inadvertent session of cry it out today. The dear baby Caleb, like his brother, feels compelled to roll over any time he is put on his back. Which meant napping him anywhere but our arms has become impossible, and nighttimes are a disaster (can we say waking every 45 minutes when co-sleeping and not falling asleep for more than 10 otherwise). Meanwhile dear big brother Nathaniel decided that Mama needed to be using tools to clean up the patio. So Dada was left with the joy of soothing the needing a nap and jet-lagged baby.


Poor Caleb, he's so non-distractable which meant that if we did a check and console method he screamed all the louder. So he cried for 45 minutes, and fell asleep on his tummy.

So we join the 40% of parents who tummy sleep their child against APA recommendations. All I can say is good riddance.
