Tonight after painfully listening to Max cry it out for about thirty minutes on and off, I decided enough was enough. I scooped up my crying baby and quietly cried as I promised him I loved him and this was a good thing..There are days I can deal and today was not one of them. I never want my boys to feel abandoned. I know its for the better yadda yadda yadda;however, sleep training doesnt have to be so painful. After all, I just want the kid to like his crib..thats all.
So, after I held him so tightly in my arms for about five minutes I placed him in his crib and sat on the floor in the middle of the room for about ten minutes. Once I felt like it was safe to leave the room, I crawled away.
He was awake for another ten minutes in his crib and quietly fell asleep. Lets see what tomorrow will bring.

Always remember, you are doing the very best that you can. And that is enough.
