Sleep trouble

Amanda2011

I'm looking for advise on helping my baby sleep better. She is very sensitive and also had pretty bad reflex. She has trouble staying asleep. She will go about 30 mins and then cry. It does not seem like she is awake when she cries. She is 8 months and has been doing this since about 5 weeks. Her dr suggested doing CIO. I did not want to but I felt like we had tried everything else. It really did not help and she got so upset she vomited. I wont try it again. I used the sleep easy book. We have also tried patting her and that does nothing. Anyone have any suggestions?

You sound like you are in the same shoes I was. And honestly nothing helped but time. I tried so many books, I called the doctor crying, I tried cry it out I hated it and it made my baby cry longer and harder and when we hit a year things got better. But truthfully things got a lot better when we got a bigger bed and all sleep on it. My kid sleeps so much better with company and now I do too. We still struggle at bedtime and naps too some days, but it is better.
