Against my better judgement, I have been letting DS fuss/cry a little at night. He always used to go down without a problem, but the last month he cries and cries unless I lay there and nurse him for 45 minutes to an hour until he is out cold. I just can't do it anymore....
So I let him cry last night for about 15 minutes...today I am feeling totally guilty and I feel like he has 'withdrawn' from me a little bit. Am I crazy? I was always against the CIO method, but I do not know what else to do. I feel like a terrible mom. I feel like all the nursing, babywearing, and cosleeping work has just gone right out the window and that our relationship/bond is now going to be affected because he cannot 'trust' me to respond to his needs... :(
Re: Another

I can't wait for the "im getting a divorce" post in 5 years or so because your husbands were fed up with your disgusting chair asses from playing on the knot all day and getting fired 4-5 times for not doing any work. you guys are all winners!! ~ Laur929
I just can't believe these women don't have the ability to step back and think, huh, my mom let me cry once or twice when I was a baby, and I'm not an ax murderer. Maybe my kid will be fine too.
