tingting/zaczac:
elizabeth has been waking up quite often the past 2-3 weeks (abt 2-4 times per night). At first i just tolerated it and attributed it to teething or just simply crazy behaviour. But since last week, i started to implement the CIO (Cry-it-out) method again while putting her to bed and surprisingly, after that, she kind of slept thru every night.. altho some nights, she still wakes up once but quite easy to go back sleep. I just stuff the bottle water into her mouth, she suck suck, drink and then i just pat her for 1 minute and then she goes back to sleep. Don't even need to carry her to sleep! Try it.
I read that teething does not cause babies to wake up at night. It's probably they dunno how to sooth themselves to sleep when they wake up so they cry and expect us to sooth them to sleep (either latch or carry or pat etc). So i guess if we let them cry-it-out, they learn how to self-soothe themselves to sleep so when they wake up, they can go back to sleep on their own.
But teething does cause our babies to be more moody...
