My little guy is 17 months old now and in the process of getting him to fall asleep on his own.

To say its been easy is an understatement with crying for up to 20 minutes on the first occasion and then slowly the crying had reduced.

I have read about self soothing techniques which there is a split response from people on using that method.

I always reassure him that he can sleep now and when he wakes up I will be there for him.

Any responses would be great.....

Cheers Guys......
