Not working

We cannot for the life of us make this work! It has been 3 weeks since we started and baby still cries every single night.

Baby is 9 months old. I think she is going through sleep regression - waking up every 2-3 hours. Before she used to give us solid 8-9 hr stretches.

Her current schedule is 2.5/3/4. No designated wake up time. Bedtime routine is bath, pjs, bottle, crib. Daytime sleep around 2.5 hrs most days and sometimes very rarely 3.

We are trying a gentle version of ferber method. It immediately clicked in 3 nights and by 3rd night she slept in 2 mins but don’t know what changed - training has slowly regressed and now cries on and on and on 30 mins + until we give up and put her to sleep with our hand on her in crib. I cannot see my baby cry so much. Should we just give up sleep training? Or is this part of regression? Should we stick to training and go through this torture every night?
