Hi all,

Is anyone else going through the 8mth seperation anxiety situation. My 8 mth old will not go down like a good girl at night time now and it takes at least an hour to get her to bed she goes down between 7 and 8.30 now. She then will awake around 4am or earlier and sometimes more than once screaming in her cot and standing at the rail carring on like a pork chop until i get to her. I pick her up and she is out like a light again so i put her back in the cot leave the room and straight away she is up screaming again

She will not settle with her daddy at all and is histerical with him she will only settle with me! She also can be really sooky and clingy during the day as well sometimes it is doing my head in!!!!!

I have tried every single thing in the book and to no success at all. !!!!!!!

Anyone have any ideas or tips to get this rectified as i do not want to co-sleep as she will expect it all the time then, we have done this only once as i needed sleep.

Any advise would be great and if anyone else is going through the same stage or been through it how long does this go on for.......

Jen
