Starting EASY need support
« on: July 21, 2012, 15:02:44 pm »
Hi,
My lo is 5 months, ebf on demand.
We started EASY yesterday with my dh doing pu/pd.
He has been doing the shush/pat as before we would have trouble getting her off to sleep.
How long should you shush/pat before leaving?
At the moment lo is only sleeping about 1/2 hour. She is shattered! It's breaking my heart hearing her scream! :-[
She seemed to do well as day went on yesterday (started with 40 min) last night dh only had to pu/pd 3 times. It seemed to go belly up at 5am ish! Since then is only sleeping 1/2 hour.
I tried for 1 hour this morning and still couldn't get her to settle  :'(

Hi and welcome to BW :)  Sorry for the delay here, I am going to move your post to General Sleep so you get the right eyes.

Can you post your routine in an EAS format?  Just post what you day was yesterday and we can go from there.  So are you doing a combination of shh/pat and pu/pd or just pu/pd?  How long is it taking to settle now?
