PacrakMG I don't have any advice, I was reading and didn't want to turn away without saying something. It sounds tough! I know you'll get some good advice here though.

No advice hereUnfortunately I have lived the same thing with all of my children. They were such amazing newborns, so happy and slept wonderfully. Then around the 3-4 month mark it fell apart pretty much as you describe. I think it has taken years of my life.
What I have realised in hindsight is that I should have followed a CIO kind of solution. A week of crying won't be the end of the world for a baby and to be completely honest, the ideal of gentle parenting wasn't worth the cost to us as a family - marriage on the rocks and myself always exhausted and grumpy and therefore parenting badly. If I could go back in time I would harden up and just do it.
