Moms who read/used Healthy Sleep Habits with older babies...
DD has a pretty good nap schedule (2 naps a day, morning and early afternoon). Her normal bedtime is a usually 7:30-8pm. She didn't take an afternoon nap today, so we put her down earlyy (6:50). She fussed for about a half hour, but is sleeping now.
Here is my question- according to the book, if she cries tonight (HA!- if), I should NOT go in. Not even to soothe? Just let her cry. Is that right?
Did this work for you ladies?
Thanks to all the HSH,HC BTDT moms

If it was me...it would depend on the cry. I can differentiate between her cries now, so if I KNOW something's bothering her or she got spooked it's a pretty rough cry...I'll go in. But if it's her babbling, whiny cry...I'm staying in bed

Yes, I do this too.
I found if I go in to DD it can make it worse and then she's awake.
It usually only lasts a minute or two with DD and she goes back.
Now, DS has only woken 2x in almost a year, both times I went in because he is a champion sleeper. Both times he was congested from a cold.
In the early days I used to joke with DH that we should ship DS to the doctor that wrote the book. His nap schedule was 100% to the book. He just stuck his thumb in his mouth and went
