My ds is 18 months old and has only now started to sleep through the night. We tried everything but cry it out because he shares a room with his nearly 3 year old sister. It reached the stage where he was waking every 1-2 hours and I was about to have a breakdown due to no sleep and working full time.
We brought him to a sleep clinic who said for two week try the cio method and just keep dd in with us so she gets a night sleep. Let dh deal with ds because it broke my heart to watch him scream.
Two nights of crying for a half hour to hour and he now sleeps right through after a 2 minute moan when I first put him to bed.
Last night he slept from 7pm to 8:45 this morning.
I feel like a new woman.
I just thought I would share to say I know this way is hard but it works and it's best for baby and everybody in the end
