My son is almost 16 months old. His whole life, he has had sleeping issues. (much like me) I held him until he fell asleep until he was about one, and then I started putting him to sleep on his own. It was hard for him at first but after a couple of days he seemed to get the hang of if. Well, now, it's like 4 nights out of the week that I have to fight with him. I put him in his crib and he screams and cries for about 45 minutes before he falls asleep! Every few minutes I go into his room and hug and kiss him and lay him down but he continues to fight me. Do I let him cry or lay with him? I feel so guilty. I feel like a bad mom when I let him cry, but at the same time, I think if I go and get him, I'm failing as a parent.
