Reddit reviews The No-Cry Sleep Solution for Toddlers and Preschoolers: Gentle Ways to Stop Bedtime Battles and Improve Your Child's Sleep

That's fantastic! Good for you! :-D

We co-slept until our son was about 2, but by then he was just too big for the bed (3 people in a double bed = no blankets for mama :-/ ) and we moved his toddler bed into our room. The transition took a month or so to really smooth out, but we got good advice from the No-Cry Sleep Solution and now he happily sleeps in his own space.

When he was an infant, I would nurse him in the bed and then transfer him to his sleeper, but when he hit four months, it's like he figured out that this was BS. He could be floppy-asleep, but you laid him down on the mattress and it was instant, furious tantrum that lasted FOREVER and thoroughly woke him up. >.< We started co-sleeping because it was the only way any of us got enough sleep to function the next day, and it was a very positive experience. Made extended breast-feeding much easier and my husband loved the snuggly bonding time.

Considering how much of the world engages in it as a standard practice, I think it's always good to try to normalize safe co-sleeping in the US, and also show that it's not a permanent condition. ;-) Thanks for sharing your success!

Have you tried the No-Cry Sleep Solution? I read through this book and decided that at 12 months (now 17) I wasn't ready to night wean. However, this process did help me get my LO to sleep without being ALWAYS attached to my boob.

edit: Hit post before I meant to.

I really really like this woman’s approach: No Cry Sleep Solution. It’s a gentle approach to helping them get there.
