No Harm from "Cry It Out"

Well, well, well here's an article all about the "cry it out" method of infant sleep training.  Specifically, these people studied the long term effects of allowing babies to cry in an attempt to teach them self-soothing techniques.  We used one of these with our girl, and I was more than a little worried about how it might impact her emotionally.  It was very effective at helping her sleep better, but did it leave her feeling abandoned?  Apparently not.  Children expose to these sleep training had no more problems than children soothed in the traditional (in the last 30 years) American sleep plan.  I think we will have to see if it works as well with baby #2.
