However, the pick up put down method only aggrivated my son as you said it aggrivated Ayden. What worked for me was to get him to wind down and then lay him in his bed drowsy. I'd say something sweet and low to him and then leave the room. If/when he cried I'd wait 10 minutes and then go in to comfort him with sweet words and a gentle pat on his back. I'd do that for a minute or so (at least until he was calm again) and then I'd leave and start that same 10 minutes over. The first time I did it my son took 2 cyles and was asleep within a few minutes of the 3rd 10 minute cycle. I had to be careful though, because sometimes letting him cry got him too worked up and then it was all for not. To keep myself distracted from the crying, I'd do some sort of chore that would take my mind off of his crying and tried to remind myself that crying is often a baby's way of soothing themselves.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13479169181010268293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002354997398671912.post-63115295057081022682012-07-11T09:53:49.910-04:002012-07-11T09:53:49.910-04:00I agree.
