Controlled crying? 3 month old?

Question

Has anyone ever used controlled crying on their babies to teach them to go to sleep by themselves? I am at the moment. My daughter is 14 weeks, would like to hear others stories and how long it took. Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Thanks for ruining my night. A 3 month old? Learning to sleep by themselves? What is wrong with you? Be a mother and help your baby sleep.

Don't ask a question on Yahoo Answers, especially on controversial subject, and not expect judgment.

Answer 2

You do realize your baby is 3 months old, right? And that the baby can't walk. Or talk. Do you really think the baby can control when it cries? Three-month-olds barely realize that their heads are attached to their body and that they can control their arms and legs.

Answer 3

That's definitely not a good idea for a baby that young.  Personally, I wouldn't do it at any age, but absolutely not at 3 months old.

Answer 4

I would not do it at 3 months..well I don't know if I would do it at all ever..a baby is a baby and need their mommy.

Answer 5

Aside from the fact that I do not believe in letting a baby cry it out, 3 months is much too young. You are a parent, youre job is to take care of your baby when he/she needs you and they are too young right now to let you know they need something.
