sweet dreams
June 20th, 2007 by MelanieI’ve done it! I have mastered the art of getting babies to fall asleep on their own.
Our youngest, now 4 1/2 months, can fall asleep without assistance, consistently. I’m pretty proud of that, because it makes my life MUCH easier. She no longer has to fall asleep nursing but can be laid down awake and put herself to sleep without a peep.
It took some work, but it always does. Not all babies are the same either. I’ve found that out in the few years I’ve done daycare, which is how I’ve now mastered it by the time I got to my own second child 
Don’t be disheartened if you’re trying and can’t get your child to fall asleep. Every child has their own personality and ours is easier than most, although I will admit it wasn’t perfect. I’ve had practice and heard enough babies crying while trying to fix meals for preschoolers or feed a second baby that I can tolerate a little more crying than most mothers. It’s always hardest when it’s your own, however. See my other post in Kids and family to know how I did it.
With enough sleep (and loving care), every baby can be a happy baby!
