[QUOTE="ML, post: 282162"] Gosh I still remember those days. It was the beginning of realizing the two schools of thought on parenting. Nurturing vs tough love. I agree that she needs to follow her gut and that the "just right" approach is typically somewhere in the middle for most of us. Manster was collicky and I tried the cry it out approach which would seem like it was working and then all of a sudden he'd get (another) ear infection or virus and need extra comfort and we'd have to start all over again. Of course I know now about he sensory stuff. I wrote a little poem once when trying to let him cry it out. A couple of the versus went like this: Welcome aboard the train of complain Manster's conducting his chorus of pain Don't want not bottle, no food, no breast My only goal is to put you to test Hear the whistle It's time to embark Manster will tell you his story From morning till dark Welcome Aboard No Fair is too steep Ain't No Way You'll ever get sleep There's more but I can't remember at the moment. Hugs and good luck! ML [/QUOTE]
