Thanks so much, I'll check out that link. I did finally get my son to sleep in his crib last night by letting him tummy sleep. He does very well tummy sleeping for his naps but I've been afraid to let him tummy sleep at night b/c I can't check on him as frequently (if I want to get any sleep too!) but I decided to try it last night and he did just fine in the crib. I still nursed him until he was almost asleep but when I put him down he went straight off to dreamland. He did still awaken at his usual times but I suspect out of habit, not out of a real need to nurse. That's where the pacifier would come in handy - Like Tracy said in her book, I could give him the "dummy" at those times so he'd go back to sleep, but he won't take it so there's my dilemma. Maybe the site you sent me will help. I do have a bedtime routine in place for him and I'm fairly certain his night wakings are a habit, not a need. But I'll take it one thing at a time.... sleep in the crib, then work on the nursing issue. Thanks again!
