OK, I'm not sure what I need here, maybe just to write my ideas down....

We have an average of 1-3 wake ups a night. I generally feed Emma to get her back to sleep. No major dramas. But as she is bigger & the weather is warmer, she is getting unwrapped (she is still tightly wrapped for sleep) & once she is unwrapped, even after I feed her & get her back to sleep she wakes as soon as I put her back down. And now that the weather is warmer I think I'd rather not wrap her as she is a very warm sleeper & sweats like mad. The last 2 nights I have taken her into our spare bed which is queen sized & she has slept unwrapped no worries at all - because I was with her. But that isn't a long term option. I want to sleep with DH! And her in our bed isn't an option, as DH sleeps terribly when Em sleeps with us.

So now I basically know that she can sleep unwrapped as she has for the last 2 nights with me. The next step is to get her to do it in her cot. I am so daunted by this prospect, TBH I am completely freaking out!

I have tried a few different things over the last few months & my biggest fear is that I won't be able to do whatever it is we decide on. I want to follow through. I feel that being inconsistent with her is probably the worst thing I could do. So I need to find something that I won't give up on. So CC is out, because I know for sure that I can't do that in the long term..

Here's my idea: putting a single mattress next to Emma's cot & just laying on that while she is in her cot. I'm pretty sure she will scream the house down for a fair while, but I guess knowing that I am in the room & will stay there until she falls asleep should still be a comfort right? Then hopefully as time goes on it will take less time..and maybe I'll move closer to the door (but I can decide on that bit later).

Anyway, if you've read this far, thank you. Please let me know what you think. Like I said, I really want to have my complete action plan ready before the start, so that I can be prepared & stick to it so as not to confuse the mite.

Any constructive advice very welcome!!!!
