I really need some help please....

Linda, here is what I would do:

1. Get a lightweight growbag/sleeping bag
2. Make a date with yourself and Emma that will be COT NIGHT! (Talk it up: she will have no idea what you are on about, but smiley relaxed excited Mummy will maybe help her: she will pick up a good vibe rather than a stressy vibe?)
3. Put her to bed as normal, and be prepared for lots of pat pat
4. When she wakes "for a feed" feed as normal (in the dark? I am sure you do that already?) then back to bed and more pat pat

Is she in your room? (Sorry I am sure I know the answer to that, I just can't remember!) Do you think she can smell you, so that is what wakes her for a feed? (I am sure Charlie used to do that: he slept through when he was in a spearate room to me, but if we were in the same room, he would ALWAYS wake for a feed........)

Persoanlly, I would avoid the mattress........just not my thing......I would rather lean over the cot and do pat pat........

Teh above makes it like I have over simplified, but the above, along with a CD on repeat and a levender room spray........it may take a fortnight, but worth it in the end.........
