DD2 who is almost 16months, has 6 teeth (possibly 2 molars on top of that) coming through. For the last 2 weeks she had not slept for more than 30mins at a time, day or night!
Our nights this week:
Monday, she through a massive tanty that lasted over an hour, after refusing to go to sleep for 2 hours. She came to bed with us and would not sleep if she was not attached to boob..
Tuesday, did not sleep for more than 15min at a time. Once we took to bed with us, she refused boob, and did not sleep AT ALL. She literally threw a massive tantrum that lasted all night. Even DD1 came into our room in the wee hours, saying that she was woken by her sister!!!
Wednesday, she slept fairly well, waking every hour. In the end she would not sleep unless she was attached.
Tonight, we she been up every half hour so far, and Im not looking forward to tonight!
Almost every night since this has been happening we have been offering her pain relief (alternating between panadol and nurofen), which seems to be working but only for half the time it gives on the bottle. We've used bonjela too, and well she likes the taste of that one but it still doesnt seem to help her much!!
Im tired, I have tried so much to help her and I am running out of ideas. Please hit me with your ideas!!!
I want my happy and well sleeping toddler back, and I know I will once the teeth come through, but...
