As many people know Colton's crib broke a few weeks back after I had started to let him CIO! 
Which went: 1st night: 20 mins then I got him, 2nd night: repeat.
3rd night: 30min then fell asleep, 4th night 15min then fell asleep
Then broken crib
Well, after we got his crib he kept getting out of it by falling asleep on his last bottle! However, the night before last he was still awake so we put him in there and he cried for 30min and fell asleep. Last night he only cried for 5 min and fell asleep!
Normally he wakes at around 12am, just to come into our bed (no bottle), then wakes at 3-4am for a bottle. The night before last at 12am when he woke I just let him CIO. He cried for less than 5min and was back asleep. Then when he woke for his bottle I made him about 6-7oz of water with only one scoop of formula (just to flavor the water a bit) and propped it up; after finishing it he fell back asleep on his own.
The next morning I woke up to OH getting out of bed and JUMPED UP! MADE OH check on Colton! He was still asleep in his bed!
It was the first night he didn't come into our bed at ALL!! I was so excited.
Well, last night was even better!
He woke up 2-3 times, but I went in ONCE to pat his back for a second, and the other two times he went back to sleep ALL ON HIS OWN! AND WITH NO BOTTLE!!
I was so excited to wake up this morning and STRETCH!
Then go right back to sleep!
Slept for an extra 30-45min until Colton woke!!
Lets hope it continues!! Maybe it's the start of something fantab!
