I did this with ds when he was a year and got him to get self to sleep without breastfeeding and only patting him to sleep in crib. eventually gradually stopped patting him to sleep by gradually moving out to door each night he was put ot bed and them out of door.

by 16 mths he slept 8pm to 7pm.

Is a long drawn out process that you need patience for but it does work. I combined it with dana sleepsense plan to finish it off.

yes thats plan, im happy top feed still for now as we have massive improvement but soon we will be looking at making some more improvements. Im ok with the long gradual process because it was either grin and bear it or some kind of CC which is not an option.

Good luck with it. It is worth it!!
