Sleep training is rough. One approach is to lock their door and let them cry it out. first night can be an hour long. second night should be much less. by the 4th night they generally stop trying to get your attention. but all of your instincts will be to give in and soothe them.
another approach is to let them ruin your nights for years and they will be sleeping in your bed until they are embarrassingly old.
I am a big fan of the second approach apparently.
