CIO Day 3

So Mike didn't get home until late last night so it was up to me to put Jemma to bed. I tried to do CIO but I cheated a little bit. I gave her a 6 oz bottle around 8pm and she started to fall asleep at the end. So I picked her up and took her upstairs (not trying to keep her asleep). I laid her in the crib and of course she started crying. I let her cry for a few minutes then went in there, laid her back down (since she was always standing) and patted her back. The last time she dropped the pacifier and I couldnt find it so I just let her go without it. I probably let her cry and check on her a few times for around 10 min total. The last time, she didn't fuss when I kept my hand on her back so i did that. I know it was bad but it helped and she went to sleep. She did wake up around 5am and Mike changed her diaper and she fussed for around 10 minutes again and Mike checked on her a few times before she fell back asleep. Not too bad so far.
