We've decided to start sleep training the Hopeful Hero. We've been talking a lot about what we want to do and when we want to start it. And we make the decision at night, when we have rocked our child for an hour after two or three bad nights in a row. Both of us look at each other and say, "They are old enough now at 3.5 months to learn this important self soothing skill." Then we leave the child, in their bed and walk away. It's how we decided the day for the Peaceful Hero, Friendly Hero, and now the Hopeful Hero. I've turned off the monitor and I'm going to do something fun for then next hour and pray for the strength to let her cry.
Wish us luck for the next few days!
