My wife and I differ on our bedtime philosophy. She prefers to soothe our 5 month old daughter with a bottle or rocking until she goes to sleep. I, on the other hand, allow her to cry herself to sleep...if she is tired and has been fed and changed. I am concerned that she will develop a need for us to assist her each night as she grows older. I also respect my wife's difficulty with hearing her cry and try not to be critical. Does anyone have any experience or thoughts on this? I have a question.

If all else fails, heat up some yougurt or milk. it soothes them to be warm and fed. I always around bedtime gradually dim the lights to simulate dusk.
