Cry It Out Method

My son is 12 weeks and has trouble with napping on his own without being held during the day. My Doctor suggested the cry it out method. Is he too young for this? And how did you do this if you've tried it. She said to start with 5 minutes of crying and work your way up to 20. I can hardly last 5 minutes. After 5 minutes I go in and try to calm him without picking him up, but he just screams. It's so hard. I've only tried it one day. Please share your experiences. Thanks~

Considering Giving up Breast Feeding?

I have been breast feeding my beautiful son for a month since he was born. It has been going well in terms of him latching on, etc. However, I am frazzled. He seems to need to eat constantly, sometimes every hour and definitely every 2 to 2 1/2, even at night. I have no time to do anything, most importantly sleep. My husband will bottle feed him breast milk for one night time feeding on the weekend nights but even then I really don't get much sleep since it goes through him so quickly. I am considering giving him formula maybe once...
