For weeks now I've been having to rock DD to sleep (day & night), she used to self settle and go to sleep herself, all I'd have to do was give her her dummy and giraffe and she would be right.

Tonight I put her down, and i didn't have to take her out of her cot at all! Did have to go in and stroke her cheek for a bit, but she wasn't standing or sitting up like she usually is. Woo hoo!! Hope she keeps it up. Now to see how long she stays asleep for...she's also started waking up again repeatedly before I even make it to bed myself
