My husband and I have different way of letting my lo goes to sleep. He is the cry it out method but he will hold our boy to his body and stop him from struggling his hands and legs then assure him to cry it out its fine and he sleep after that. But everytime he did that I will be uncomfortable and angry, because I too heart pain for my lo. My way will be the normal coaxing and as always it can took me 1hr to 2hr for him to get to sleep. My husband say sleeping is very important to him so cry it out is the best way and efficient way for him to get into sleep. Rather than me rocking him for 1 or 2 hrs and he still wide awake not sleeping. My lo can stay up for 7 hrs not sleeping no matter how I rock him. Only my husband use the cry it out method it make him get some sleep or nap. My lo is 2 months old going to 3 months. Any mummies or daddies is doing the cry it out method?

I'm not for the cry it out method. I did it with my first son. He was about 8months old. I started late. The cried for 45 minutes straight till he vomited. Babies are young and they need us. I would say go for the maternal instincts. No one can tell you what to do. It's your baby. Also, babies only way of expressing is through crying. Even science has now proven that a baby can't be spoilt. If I could I would not have done it. Why not try another method. The feber method. In that way both you and hubby can compromise.
