For the first 7 months Olivia would only sleep if she was in someone's arms during day and at night she would only sleep if she was in bed next to mom. During the night she became very active and would wake up every 2 hours and sometimes stay up for an hour or so in the middle of the night. Everyone said that nothing would change unless we let her "cry it out." I would rather amputate my leg than have her "cry it out" and so this was our routine for 7 months. Finally...after a lot of prayers and following ideas from the book "No Cry Sleep Solution" we have been greatly blessed and little miss Olivia now sleeps in a crib and has learned how to sleep through the night. She is not yet consistent at these new talents, but I am definitely OK with taking baby steps toward out goal. We have been greatly blessed. We are so grateful and are so proud of Olivia.
