I'm so with you on this. My son likes to wake up at exactly 3 a.m. every morning. it has always been a bad habit of wanting a drink of water, or i think just to see me. it's been hard and it's an off and on thing, when i don't get a lot of sleep a few days in a row, i cave and bring him into bed with me, and i know it's not good, but in my job, if i can't function, i'm pretty much useless in the kitchen. I have been letting him cry it out though more and I don't worry too much about the other people. Most of the time they say they don't hear him, but for myself, i have ear plugs sitting on my night stand right next to me to throw them in when he wakes. Everything works differently for everyone. Good luck!!!
