I know my wife and I were very testy with each other during those times. I'll say this...as much as it sucks when they turn 4-5 months I did the Ferber method (basically a cry it out method). It sucks but by the end of night 3 both kids were sleeping through the night. Baby Sleep Solution was the book. Goes into the reasoning behind it. Basically teaches the baby self soothing.

Basically I'm a big baby. A big, hairy baby. Anyways, I am trying to be mindful of this and not snap. Or the times that I do snap, I'm being quick to apologize vs being a stubborn German Austrian.
June 6, 20214 yr Called up the benefits department to add Ellie to our health insurance Paco: I would like to add my baby daughter to our health insurance Customer Service Rep: Ok, what is her name? Paco: Helen Rosemary Pacoapolis CSR: Ok, adding her to your health insurance. Do you need me to add her to anything else? Dental? Paco: Well.... she doesn't have teeth yet. CSR: ... Paco: Sorry, bad joke. CSR: No, it's ok. I get that one a lot.

Baby Sleep Solution was the book. Goes into the reasoning behind it. Basically teaches the baby self soothing. This is the way. I had to send my wife out of the house every night during this period. She couldn’t handle it. In this case, guessing Paco will be leaving the house... you big hairy baby you.
June 6, 20214 yr Congrats guys - I was hoping your lack of posting round here was due to bringing a little one in! Best of luck!
