Shock!

Tonight Felix was being fussy, yet again. Siew and I are becoming distraught with him not sleeping. He fusses because he is tired, but also because he does not want to sleep!

So, Siew asked me to look information up online to try and get him to sleep. I said that I had looked it up before, I had, but tried it anyway. This time, because of the search including his age, I found this link that details a few ways to get a baby to sleep.

So we tried the Controlled Crying method.

I put him down, with the lights out, said, "Time to sleep." and left the room. He, of course, cried. I came back in 10 minutes and "sshhh'd" him while touching him a little. Did that again in 10 more minutes. He stopped crying on that visit, and was asleep within a few minutes.

Siew and I were excited and shocked! It WORKED! So, now, we're going to try this method tomorrow as well. If this works, it is a miracle that we have been needing!
