thanks Janet - Brenda and I have "made up" and are speaking civilly to
each other re the dilemma of confused identity and schedules versus
mother support.
I am currently writing a new book on infant sleep - all sleep stories/
memories/ anecdotes - welcome.
Better clarify - I will not be advocating parent directed feeding,
controlled crying or leaving babies to cry it out.

My CHN yesterday suggested I do a 'form of controlled crying' to get my
4mo off his dummy for settling. I could only nod politely, thinking
"HELL NO!". I'd really like to have him not use it (he only uses it for
going to sleep), as sometimes that's the only thing waking him up - the
fact that it's fallen out (again!). But I'm not going to punish him for
wanting it. She said "just go in, pat pat pat, no eye contact, leave"
Umno.
