Does anyone know where I can find good articles, research and/or statistics on 'crying it out'? Or just waiting until baby starts crying before picking him up (instead of picking baby up as soon as he/she starts fussing).
My sister and I talked about this today. Our babies were born on the same day and are 3 months + 1 week old. She said she lets her DD cry for a while (until DD starts screaming!) before she picks her up and feeds her. We both BF but she tries to stick to a schedule whereas I feed on demand. I never let DS cry if I don't have to but she says he'll turn out like her 5-year old DS, who's quite a handful and wants everybody's attention all the time! I don't believe that at all but how do I convince her that I'm right?
