Day 2 of Sleep Training

If you didn't catch my post yesterday on our First Day of Sleep Training then check it out. We are sleep training Noah and I am so amazed at how well it is going! So last night I put Noah down for bed and he did cry and I had to do the pick up/put down but I only did it twice and then just shushed him and talked to him and kept rubbing his back. He was asleep within minutes. Total time to get him to sleep...10 minutes! That included the extra time that I sat in his room to make sure he was in a deep sleep. Huge improvement from our first night's 40 minute crying session!

He did wake up quite a few times last night BUT it only took me a few minutes to get him back to sleep by just giving him a hug, laying him back down, and rubbing his back. I have to say, I am impressed. That is 2 whole days and nights of not nursing Noah to sleep and that is amazing! He is still not sleeping through the night, but I am hopeful and according to the reviews I have read, it usually takes about a week to 2 weeks before their babies started sleeping through the night. So I am highly optimistic!
