Let's talk about sleep, baby

allycat our sleep consultant strongly suggested a "lovey" for the crib but I was really nervous about it. I ended up buying this one (actually I bought two so I had a back up lol):

craftytype, when you were in the room and putting him down awake, wasnt he trying to nurse? That is what C does. My lame attempts at trying to help him get to sleep w out nursing are always failures bc he is so frantic and desperately trying to nurse, burying his head in my chest, grasping at my shirt, etc. I usually just give in.

No, he didn't really. I only actually picked him up a couple of times though. I actually found that my "intervening" seemed to upset him more. I ended up just quietly sitting in a chair near the bed and every few minutes I would just pat his back. After a couple of nights I started to cue in to the sounds he was making that were actually progressing towards sleep and I would leave him be if that's how it was sounding.

I call that L's sleepy song.
