Well we have started sleep training 
I didn't mean to, but I got myself trapped. I tried to nurse to sleep but LO did his new screaming at the boob thing. I guess I could have had DH try to put him down, but having me sit by his bed has been working better lately, so I did that. And then once I did that, I realized that, if there was any chance we were going to sleep train on Friday, I couldn't pick him up or I'd be making things much harder. Soooo...I was stuck. And here we are.
The good news is it's behind us
I hope it goes better this time. It was a million times better than night 1 last time so hopefully this method will work better. Part of me deep down just doesn't believe anything will work. But we're going to try it for a week.
Going to still nurse at night and then really make sure I'm waking him up before I put him back to bed so he can resettle himself. I know you're not supposed to feed during the night according to the Sleep Lady's version, but I'm just not comfortable cutting him off when he's been having 3+ feeds during the night.
