We tried that a while ago but it didn't work. We think he has a combo ESP/separation anxiety (but only when he gets a vibe that she will be leaving in the morning for work).
The last three nights were just another example. Friday and Saturday nights went fine. He cried one or two times each night but if I went in to comfort him, he settled down right away and went right back to sleep. Last night, ugh! He started crying around 3am and I went in. He cried even louder until my wife came in and took him from me. He immediately stopped crying and closed his eyes. But, as soon as she would put him down, he would cry again. This lasted for
3 hours! My wife had to get up at 6:30 for work so she got about 2-2 1/2 hours of sleep last night. She has off tomorrow so we will see what tonight brings. I'm hoping this phase is a short one because it sucks!
