I have been putting him down to sleep since the beginning pretty much, and he is great about falling asleep on his own, it's just the transition that he struggles with recently again. I try to wait as long as I can to see if he settles himself, but I think sometimes that makes it worse for me in the end because he gets too worked up by the time I go in that I'm not able to just shhpat. Sometimes he cries at the 30 min mark, then 45, then an hour, which he did today for his third nap and then I ended up having to rock him, which was unsuccessful and I ended up just getting him up since we had company then. Although he did the same for his second nap today also and settled himself each time. I was going to ask if W2S would be helpful at this point, but I would have to do it at the 35 min mark I think because it's hard to judge when he actually falls asleep, so I wouldn't want to risk going in when he is about to wake at 40 sometimes. How many days would I do that for if I did it? There are some naps when he just sleeps right through the transitions with just a rustle around in the crib, or he only cries out at one point and then settles back for the rest. I'm hoping it's just these few days and then he gets back on track. Maybe I should try putting him down a tad earlier. I've definitely been watching his cues, but I try to push him a little sometimes, especially if he woke earlier than I'd like him to either in the morning or from a nap, so that I can get his times back on track.
