Has anyone tried the Ferber method and succeeded? How long did it take to stop cryings?

I didn't really follow it to the T.. what I did was... Get her bathed up at 6ish with Johnson n Johnson's bedtime bath, then oil her down with the bedtime oil.. Gave her milk and made sure she could see I was in the room with her... What also helped was I left my used jimmies as a comfort thing for her.. She whined and looked at me, as though she's pleading please pick me up.. but I didn't.. I just said.. you go to sleep, I'm here..I won't go away... It took about 4 days before I can leave her 1/2 sleepy on her own and she falls asleep on her own.. It was hard at first, but now, DD sleeps 8 hrs before having her night feed at 4 ish..which is great by me :) S
