Sunday started WI/WO here is my first post
I put her down, she played, she talked she mantra cried,then started to scream. I WI/PD/comfort(she's no longer crying)WO. Then I did it again. That time she ended up playing with her duck for good 10 minutes. And then as I was WO the second time, she realized what was going on and started to cry. I counted to 10, WI/PD/comforted/WO. She cried again, but as I was ready to go in, she stopped and started to talk to herself. So I didn't go in. Over the evening I had to go in few more times. As she grew more and more tired she was crying more and more and it was much more intense. Each time I WI/PD(if necessary)/comforted/WO. At the very end I was in about 5 times every 10-count. And then... she fell asleep . Does that tell you how happy I was? So it took her an hour again (she was asleep at 7:30) but I felt less stressed and got my laundry folded in between the WI . What a productive evening!
Monday
I put her down at 6:15 and did WI/WO as before. The same thing as before. Twice she played alone for about 7-10 minutes and then got more tired and started to cry more often so I was in and out every minute or so for about 20 minutes. Then the crying was continuous, so I kept WI/WO and finally she fell asleep at 7:15.
Tuesday
Today it still took her an hour to fall asleep but much less crying and only 11 WI/WO.
