Sheesh, I really can't stay consistent with my posts can I? Welp, here are some current thoughts and updates on my blessed life.
I have been struggling for almost 4 months now with the idea of sleep training Killian and getting him on a schedule. I graviate so naturally toward attachment parenting styles but there are certainly times I desperately need a handful of minutes to myself; not cleaning, not exercising, not cooking, not bathing or nursing or what have you. Jake and I decided to sleep train Killian about a month and a half ago using the Ferber CIO method. Honestly, I put him to sleep nursing and then let him cry when he woke up from me putting him down and he wimpered for a couple of minutes. It was so easy! We had a great three weeks of that and then he learned to stand and got better at crawling and developed some seperation anxiety and all went to heck. I had also gotten up to nurse Killian in the night. I figured going from co-sleeping and nursing practically all night to nothing at all would be a little tough on the guy so I eased into it. Once this fussy monster came around though, I was missing the nights alone with my husband in our bed.
