Ahhhh, the 40 minute wonder....I know it well!!

Both my babies have done this. Teaching them to resettle is hell, put quite simply. It takes time and effort and a LOT of patience.

But if you're consistent with your settling, eventually she will learn that its not time to be awake yet and will go back to sleep after that first cycle.

I've been hard at it with DS for weeks now and I am finally starting to see an improvement. Far from perfect, but definitely keeping me going.

My daughter did eventually learn how to resettle herself and went on to be a great little sleeper!

Hang in there, sounds like you're doing all the right things!
