Och, I sympathize with the crying. It is hard to let them cry for no reason... even when it's necessary. Good luck and chin up!

I'm not sure how big a fan I am of the super-tight scheduling. Some parents become downright rude and reclusive as they stick to "baby's schedule" and let baby's sleeping patterns make the rules. It also makes me wonder how spoiled the child could turn out. Still, to each their own?
