That sounds like a great book. I think I may check that out.
I am going to start sleep training at 6 months... which is very soon! We have been lucky to have a great sleeper from the beginning, but I have tried my best to encourage good sleep habits early on. He only wakes up once for a feed everynight (the last time he woke up twice was at 4 wks old, and he has never woken 3x), but I feel he could STTN and the waking is more habit than anything.
So, I have a couple questions for you Keri, or anyone else who has done this. How do you know when a baby doesn't need to eat during the night? Do you just assume 6 mo? And how long is it reasonable for a baby to go without eating?
He goes down at 7:30pm, and I give him a 'top up' of milk before I go to bed at 11. He wakes for the day at 7am, so, I am not sure if 8 hrs is too long to go without a feed. He only drink around 3 oz at 4 am, which I consider to be more of a snack than a meal.
