I went to the GP with headaches and got told sleep deprivation is causing PND so HV was sent round to teach me how to sleep train 12mo DS. She told me about 2 methods, CC and gradual retreat but advised that CC would be the best way for our situation.
We started tonight. I took DS into his room and bf him until drowsy. I then laid him in his cot, patted him and said goodnight and left the room. Went into the adjoining room and set the stopwatch. 2 minutes later (which DS had cried on and off through) I went back in to him (he was stood at the end of his cot) and I laid him back down, patted him and said goodnight. He was crying but as instructed I left the room and went back into mine and reset the stopwatch for 4 minutes.
1 minute in the cry became different and I realised DS was choking. I ran back into his room as he projectile vomited all over his cot and the carpet.
I've just spent the last hour and a half scrubbing carpets, blankets, toys, vest, Grobag, cot and matress. DS is now in our bed (as his matress is wet) still awake whilst I have to wait up for an hour for the washing machine to finish.
Grrrr
