For those of you who have read and used Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child (for those who are opposed to the CIO method, leave your comments at the door), do you let LO CIO when he/she wakes up in the middle of the night as well?  The book jumps around so much and is somewhat hard to read and I am having trouble understanding this aspect of the sleep training.  LO has done well learning to fall asleep on his own at the beginning of the night but will sometimes still wake up several times throughout the night, more times than I know he needs to to eat.

Our LO has only woken up a few times at night since we have done this method and it's usually bc she's sick.  But for naps if she wakes up crying after only a few mins I'll go on, pat her butt and shush her. If she were to wake up in the middle of the night I would do the same thing maybe 2-3 times and if she still wouldn't go back to sleep I'd try feeding her.
