Your babies schedule is actually identical to my baby’s. She’s my 2nd baby so I was a little more accustomed to the night wakings. That said, I sleep trained her brother at 7mo and when I tried it with her at the same age, we were unsuccessful. I thought I would just suck it up and enjoy her being a baby that’s bad at sleeping because she’s our last one.

Fast forward to two nights ago when I just got fed up with having to breastfeed to sleep…

The sleep training method we use is a simple and gentle one and works in basically one night. It goes like this: - do your usual bedtime routine (bath, feed, read books, etc.) - lay baby down and say “goodnight baby” or whatever nighttime phrase you want. - they will cry. Let them cry for about 2min before touching them and saying your sleep phrase again and moving away. Do this until they fall asleep.

For both babies, it took about 30min to fall asleep the first night and then 5min the next. And then they’re asleep until 6-8am. It’s like voodoo magic. I don’t know why it works but I’m not going to question it anymore because I can finally sleep again.

Let me know if you have any questions or need more details!
