I certainly am not going to be a parent based on what others think or what some books say, but I just can't let my little man cry right now. I feel he needs his mommy when he is upset. I am not offended at all sweetheart. What works for one mom might not for another or what one mom thinks another might not agree with. That's for sure - I will have an EXTREMELY difficult time letting him CIO when it does happen, but that will happen at any age. I can only think of today and right not I just have to go to him when he cries, my heartbreaks when he is unhappy. You should see the boo-boo face he makes and the quivering lip and the wah! It will get me every time.HBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05550430986226574389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7683933676778809271.post-61205803923912641922009-07-08T12:30:46.174-04:002009-07-08T12:30:46.174-04:00Oh just wait my dear. My living room has bumbo, s...Oh just wait my dear. My living room has bumbo, swing, toy box, tummy mat, bouncy seat, jumparoo, diaper changing station and a toy piano. It only gets worse, LOL. Or really....better. :)<br /><br />Just curiously where did you get the 8 month CIO thing? I've heard that a baby can technically start to be spoiled at around 6 mos of age. Just something to think about but if you keep him in the swing for 8 months he may get REALLY used to that and then the CIO will be AWFUL. I'm not at all trying to tell you what to do just trying to help out. A friend of mine didn't start trying to CIO until nearly 1 year and she had the WORST time with it. We started it at around 3 months (with modifications where i go and try to soothe her instead of just leaving her be) and it worked out great. 8 months just seems like a long time to let a baby get used to something and then try to change it. Don't be offended PLEASE, just tossing in some help as LORD knows that parenting doesn't come with a manual! Good job on the 'no bed' rule though, AWESOME!Beccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04119459848202391334noreply@blogger.com
