Sleep training

It is 3:30 in the morning and Kara has been crying for over an hour. Dr. Nelson told us it was time to un-spoil our child. No more rocking to sleep, no more picking up every time she cried. So after her 2am bottle she went back to sleep....for 15 minutes. Then the babbleing began...then the crying. Her cries are not as hearty after an hour and I leave the room when she does, and come back when they stop...hoping to teach her that not-crying is good. After the first 15 minutes I went to check on her...and found her lying in a huge puddle of spit up! Poor thing. After rearranging her she cried for like 45 more minutes. It is now 3:34 am and she seems to have conked out. Let's see how long this lasts. Dr. Nelson told us that the formula could take a full 2 weeks to take effect....her GI tract needs to adjust to it. Off to bed I go....I hope.
