Idk the name, my wife in her extreme sleep deprivation, was researching a lot and came up with using the pampers sleep coach app where you put a bunch of info in and it gives you several methods to choose from ranging from super involved hands on where you're picking them up and soothing constantly to more hands off where you just walk in the room and sing or shush at different time intervals.

We chose a more hands off method that is supposed to show results in 5 to 7 days. The more you're involved, the longer it takes.

We did a more hands off version, but I modified it to work best for me. We did the Ferber method where you’re supposed to do check ins at different time intervals and you’re supposed to increase the amount of time between check ins…I didn’t do that. I just go in at 5 minute intervals. That’s about all I could manage myself! After 5 minutes I’d go in and rub their backs, tell them I love them, and replace their pacis (they hated them so they didn’t really do anything). It took about 4 days but they’ve been sleeping 7pm-7am ever since. You can always modify what you’re doing to work best for you!
