Our aim is to be present and empathic with our children during them. our aim is to act as an external regulator at a time when the child is too immature to regulate their own emotions (aka ‘self soothe’ or ‘self settle’). our worth as a parent should not be measured by our ability to “stop the crying”.

Suzy giordano and lisa abidin believe babies are capable of sleeping 12 hours at a time without a night feed by 12 weeks of age. once a baby reaches 8 weeks old, this method allows crying at night. The controlled crying method involves taking the following steps. step 1: put them in their cot, sleepy but still awake. step 2: say goodnight and leave the room. step 3: if your baby cries, leave them for two minutes before going back to let them know they're ok. settle them back down, say goodnight and leave the room.
