Sleep training and room sharing?

[lbonga1]

We sleep trained around 6 months for when we put DD to bed for the night, and so she does pretty well if we give her a paci and pat her butt for a minute before we leave the room. Sometimes she cries after we leave, but for the most part she puts herself to sleep ok. During the night is a different story. She's never STTN, and never sleeps for longer than 2-3 hours at a time. She doesn't fuss either. She cries as soon as she wakes up. We share a room, so I'm trying to figure out how to sleep train for these MOTN wake-ups. It probably doesn't help that she sees me and wants me to pick her up, give her paci back, etc. And of course FI sleeps through it. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm starting to lose it with not getting enough sleep.

I have absolutely no advice, my situation is horrible too so I'm curious what others have to say. I'm up even more frequently and nursing all night. Like you, she screams the minute she wakes up! UGH...hang in there mama, I know I tough it is!!

Its tough. DS has never STTN either. Just recently we got him to sleep in his crib, but that required some modified CIO. He goes to sleep easy now, but still wakes 2-3 times a night wanting to nurse. Sleep is so hard. I wish I had advice to give...I just want you to know I'm in the sleepless camp too!

I talked to my pediatrician about sleep training because I couldn't deal with cio and she suggested the sleep lady shuffle. What's cool about it is that the technique actually requires you to be near the baby in the same room so you should check it out. I am going to try after my best friend's wedding because our schedule is too crazy to start anything now.
