OK, I am sooooo against letting my babies "cry it out," especially under 6 months old... But i am also very lucky, i have had two babies that don't really cry much at all...
I have been having an issue with my baby not taking a bottle, so i have a friend, (who first of all never breast-fed a baby and is the opposite type of parent as me in EVERY sense) say to a friend of mine that I should "force Chloe to take the bottle, let her scream it out, not breastfeed her, she will live, and screaming is good for baby's lungs"
This is obviously perposterous to me, but i would like to show her some written information about how crying it out is not good for babies, especially under 6 months old. Incidentally, She never breastfed, believes in letting her babies cry without picking them up, is against co-sleeping, and really the opposite of attachment parents...
Does anyone know of any links, or articles i could print out that discuss how crying it out is in fact not good for babies???
