So this will probably get some people vamped up but I honestly don’t care. My doctor suggested that we try letting Addi cry to solve his sleep problem, so I thought after 12 months of not wanting to do it that I better give it a go. To put it simply it was a big fat fail. How anyone can watch their child cry and thrash around on the bed like that is beyond me. I felt horrible watching him do that, and all the “Mummy’s here”‘s in the world wouldn’t help him to feel better. I just hope that he doesn’t hate me now for trying.
I can safely say we will never be letting him cry like that again, even if it means that I never get a full nights sleep again in my life (or at least until he moves out of home!). You must have to be heartless to watch your child that upset. I’m desperate but not that desperate!!!
I have never felt so lost in my life. I don’t have the answers to the sleep issue, but one thing I know for certain is letting Addi cry like that is definitely not the answer.
We will find a way, a better way. I’m just not sure what it is yet.
