Ahh...another easy one! :)
YEP!
As long as the child is in a safe and controlled environment and you are aware of the situation ((i.e. checking on the baby, can hear the baby, have a monitor on the baby)) then I think very much that this method is affective!
When Hayden was born, it was hard at first because...well he was my first! It's hard to just let your child cry and cry and just listen...it breaks your heart! But I knew he was just fine, and I knew what was going on so after just a few times...he had no issue sleeping in his own bed, and honestly made things prolly easier on me and him!
When Bristol came along it was hard for me at first because she spent her first week in the NICU so I almost felt robbed :(( but same with her...after only a few times it was done and over with and she was comfortable to sleep by herself!
I know that this method isn't for everyone...but for me having 2 so close...it was necessary for my children to have a little more independence...I don't see why it's not okay to allow your child to be comfortable in their own space...and so that mom can get some rest as well?!
Like I said...as long as there is supervision, and the child is in a safe and controlled environment...I don't see anything wrong with it! Yes...it's hard to listen to your child cry and scream...but think of how much more relaxing it will be for the BOTH of you once they get past it!?!?! :))
