DS has never been much of a day sleeper, ever since day 1 he has not really slept much during the day but has always slept a minimum of 5 hours at night. the last couple of months this has just disappered. he will wake up every 1/2hr-1hr and will not go back to sleep, even when he has panadol, nurafen etc. i assume this is cos of his teeth hanging around but not actually coming thru but ahhhhh im at my wits end! i need some suggestions on settleing him/comforting him when he wakes up...he does this thing where he sings/moans/groans to himself unless u distract him at the moment i am getting massive guns from carrying him up and down the hall singing and rocking and patting etc and ive tried putting him in our bed but that doesnt help and he wont let me put him down in his cot awake or pat his bum in the cot i have to pick him up otherwise he works himself into a frenzy...
i cant give him to DF/MIL/my mum cos he just SCREAMS like hes dying until they give him back to me. the only other person who can settle him is my sister and she has been staying a couple of nights a week to give me a bit of sleep but she cant keep staying over, its not fair on her.
i have 1/2 read the no cry sleep solution but it just made blah blah blah noises in me head and i honestly cant remember anything that it said (im blaming sleep deprivation for that)
sorry its a bit jumbled, do u guys have some suggestions please!?!
