Baby threw up after I let her cry it out now I feel dreadful and want to crawl into a hole
I've tried for the past two hours to get my baby to sleep, she hasn't slept since 12pm so I know she's overtired, she passed out on the bottle and as soon as I put her down it's a meltdown. She has been crying non-stop for 2 hours and I just kept having to walk away because I was getting so worked up, I haven't eaten all day.
I go in to put her back down again and she's thrown up all the way down the side of her cot because I let her cry it out, I just can't cope anymore I am the literal worst.

I did ferber method my baby got so worked up she was choking on vomit and projectile vomited when we picked her up. It was awful. Put me off but I did it again the next day and sat outside her room with the monitor. It gets easier
Maybe your baby wants you to be with her. It could even be separation anxiety. Sometimes it’s best to forget about methods and just go with natural instincts and be there for the child. They’re at an age where they’re growing a lot so there’s many things happening in them. It seems to me she just wanted her mommy. Maybe put her to nap in your bed with you: I’m certain she will sleep and then you can go and get something to eat x
