My baby ADORED the Flying Horses at about that age. Is the Flea at all able to toddle yet?
I used the dreaded Ferber. If you read him, he's actually much, much more reasonable than people think he is. What gave me the willpower to stick through Ferber? My pediatrician ordered me to do it, because he said the sleep deprivation was going to affect my relationship with the baby. There's a lot of truth in that.
I Ferberized two kids, following his instructions (visit after 10 minutes). It sucked both times. It only lasted a couple of nights. Then I could sleep. The sleep was priceless.
