Need help with crying it out?

the only time I let my son CIO is at night time when its bed time. he might cry for 2 min and then he is sound asleep. it does break your heart and make you want to hold them, but if you are really wanting to do this method, then dont pick them up unless he is showing he just will not go to sleep. what I do is feed, diaper change, hold for a while then when my son is really sleepy, I lay him down. and somtimes he goes straight to sleep, sometimes he cries for about 2 min, I have been doing the CIO method since I brought him home, and he is now 6 weeks and its getting alot easier to just lay him down and him go to sleep. I have done the CIO during the day when I had to wash bottles real quick or something but usually I hold him until he falls asleep during the day, then lay him down. I try not to hold him while he is sleeping. my pediatrician said the CIO method is good because it teaches them how to self soothe, and you will hear people say it causes problems, it doesnt. they are fine as long as you are not neglecting them. my son is the same way with paci's too. he used to love them, now he wants nothing to do with him, which is good. one less thing to wean him from. but good luck with your little one. oh I feel guitly about it too, and I feel like sometimes he thinks I dont love him, but its normal to feel that way and when they wake up they dont even remember you letting them CIO. its okay mommy
