    It's the worst isn't it? I'm so sorry your having a bad night. Hopefully he'll figure things out after just one night.

    Ugh....good luck.  It is miserable.  We keep starting it and then giving in....not helping him much with that :)

    If you are trying to get rid of the 3am party....maybe you should try a gradual approach!?  If he screamed for 30 minutes at 3am, I would naturally assume he is hungry.  I did the Extinction Method from HSHHC, but I still allowed for 1 night time feeding.  I would go in, keep it dark, no diaper change, no talking, minimal eye contact, feed him and place him back in the crib and walk out.  Then if he cries, let him CIO.  At least you won't worry that he is hungry!?!?!?  GL
