golfer, dont look at me. i would never do that to my kid!! im sure other methods they tried just didn’t work and they were out of options. some pediatricians just give bad advice. this wasnt abuse where they made her do this all the time. it was a one time deal that their pediatrician said to try. old enough to learn but young enough not to be traumatized. i dont know exact details if they left her to sleep in it or just let her stay in her crib an extra amount of time before they came to clean her off. im sure as responsible parents they didnt make her sleep in it all night. your right i personally dont agree with this method either but of everything else they tried, this worked. pediatricians aren’t always right. when my brother was little he wouldn’t stop crying. this was at 2 weeks old. what baby doesn’t cry at 2 weeks old? but i mean literally didn’t stop crying and it worried my mother so she took him to the doctor and you know what he said? “hes hungry your breast milk isnt good enough try feeding him solid food”. (this is going back over 30 years) can you imagine feeding a kid baby food at 2 weeks old?! and my mother did! (made his colic worse by the way) pediatricians arent always right but people are naive and listen because “they’re doctors they must know”. anyways the baby is now now 11 years old and is an all around happy active kid.
