I read this book and started my daughter at around 3 months. It took a few days, but she got the hang of it. Now the only night time interruptions we ever get is if she is very sick. It's definitely worth trying, but you have to commit to it. You have to pick a crying method and a schedule and stick with it. Once you've got it down you can tweak it to meet your family's needs. Hope it helps you!

I did you this method with all four of my children which have been sleeping through the night since 6-8 weeks of age. (Which means I have been to :))
I would say use it but don't think it is law be flexable and be reasonable. But it works, at least for me anyway.

I didn't start this with my first born until she was almost six months old. It was a miserable week with lots of tears for both of us, but if you can be strong and give yourself a certain amount of time that you will be committed to it and not give in, you will definitely see a difference! I have never regretted the decision and with my 2nd child, I started doing this at two months and it was a much easier transition!

My baby is three months old and I started applying the principles of this book 4 days ago. Already her disposition is better and she's learned to put herself to sleep in her crib (after being rocked to sleep or held while sleeping since birth.) I believe the longer you wait the harder it will be, but there's no reason it shouldn't work. The hardest thing is letting them cry. What I do is let her cry for 15 minutes (unless she's histerical) after that if she's still crying I'll pick her up and calm her, then put her back down. I'll do this as many times as needs be until she settles. It is a lot of work, but eventually she figured it out and I only have to do that once if ever during naptime. She still wakes up once in the middle of the night to eat, but we are now working on that too. Good luck!

Definitely read the book. You should be able to apply these principals to your 10 month old. It may take a little longer, since she's got her night time habits, but there's no reason it shouldn't work. I'm guessing you'll need to eliminate the night time feedings one by one, and it will only work if you're willing to let her fuss through it. It's hard, but so worth it for both you and for her in the long run! Read this book and apply the principals with your baby and family in mind. You are the best judge of what will work for her, but you'll also need to stick to your guns. Best of luck to you!

I have a 10 month old and find that this book only addresses the smaller babies? It's all my fault. She goes to bed with a bottle and wakes about 3-4 times every night and I just give her another bottle so I can be lazy and get back to sleep. Maybe I'm just afraid to let her cry. Help!
