How to get baby to sleep on her own?

Not too late

Thanks All, for the advice. I have started to let my daughter cry it out a couple nights ago. The first night she woke two times. First time my husband gave in and held her to sleep. Second time we let her cry - for 30 mins... we did not go in to see her. Finally she went to sleep on the her. Last night, she woke one time, I went in and pat her back... she cried for another minute or so and went to sleep... I hope this means she is learning... We will see how it goes tonight. I am not seeing any change in her attitude to me during the day - no negatives from the crying out method so far - except for her hoarse voice.

For Chance, probably not too late for 10 month old to learn. I have a friend in the same situation... 10 month old daughter (she had been rocked to sleep for since she was 4 month old). My friend tried the controlled crying method and it works after one week.... the hard part is being able to bare her cry....

I'm trying to teach my 13 months daughter to learn how to get to sleep on her own. I thought she could, but realised that she couldn't quite recently. We let her cry to sleep for a few nights now..the crying period is reducing, but she would still cry for good 20 mins non-stop. The worst part is that she threw up everytime (not sure if we'd ever get her to do so:-(. The previous messages I read was to train baby from 6 to 10 months. Not sure how it would work for a 13 months old? Did anyone ever try to do this? Am wondering how long I should try for? Thanks for your input in advance.
