People haven ' t given up hope that some revelation about Russia controlling Trump will prevent him from taking office yet . <| sep |> Funny thing is , it took me a few attempts to spell it the way you did . Typing on my phone as well . Kept spelling it properly . <| sep |> This guy knows <| sep |> What the fuck ? ! Get off his back dude . He seems happy enough . <| sep |> Try waiting till he is very drowsy and then redraw gradually to give him some practice falling asleep without some of the sleep associations that involve you , like nursing or skin contact . When he is sound asleep , tickle his feet to ever so slightly arouse him and then let him settle back down to sleep on his own . I . e . give him practice resettling without the sleep associations that involve you . Add some sleep associations that don ' t involve you . Like a white noise generator or similar , or a crib vibrator or a automated crib rocker . Read Ferber ' s book with no intention of using any of Ferber ' s methods . Read it simply to gain an understanding of the dynamics of sleep associations so you can creatively solve the sleep problems on your own .
