Gentle sleep training:pick up, put down method

I am, but it’s not working for us tho. We are about a week into it, and it’s causing more interrupted sleep than not. My LO is 5 months so it’s possible she is also going through a sleep regression, but seriously considering the Ferber method because I am exhausted.

I do the go in every 5 min and pat baby and tell them you love them. However first my sleep coach recommended to have wake windows and naps throughout the day pretty consistent. That I was told, is key when doing gentle sleep training.
For us it took 3 hard days, each day was better, but good lord it is worth it! My baby went from waking up every 30 min to sleeping 8 hours plus (I still feed ebf at 5am) and now he naps alone. Best of luck 💜
