Sleep help

Un4getabl2

I am at  a loss with my LO's sleep. He doesn't nap at all maybe two 30 min naps and is ready for bed by 5:45. He wakes up around 1am 3am and finally at 6am. I have done the CIO but its killing me ( he can cry forever!), going in at 5 10 15 was ok but he seemed to scream more and more as we went in.

 I work and he goes to the sitter from 8 to 3:30 it just breaks my heart because I feel like im am really screwing him up.

 

He will be 8 months on the 25th

Well, if he goes down before 6PM then he probably needs to eat at 1AM....I know they say babies that age can go 12 hours without eating but that doesn't mean all babies can. I would focus on getting rid of the 3AM wake-up. I am anti-CIO (not that I judge you, if that's your method) but you could try the Ferber progressive waiting to get the 3AM wake-up closer to 6AM if that makes sense.

Edited to say that if you do Ferber, you should really, really read the book!

Thanks for in help ... I am going to get the book this weekend . Does it help with naps as well ? I am not a fan of CIO just can't do it
