Thanks girls.

It's nice to just have the reassurance, truly.
Nat. Thank you for thinking of me. The honest truth is, I am not coping well atm. Thus the cry for help post. I wish you lived closer too. Yes, her bed is raised, has been since she was a littley. It is a possibility that it is due to the ear infection. When she is acutely unwell with it she will only ever nap sitting up.

Taz Thank you. I haven't tried an ostio but we have been going to the chiro since she was five months old with varying results. I'll look into it.

Tracey A nice warm bath for her...or for me??? LOL. Yep, tried that too, with lavender essential oils to calm and relax. Sadly, it made me sleepy but not Ives.

Christine - thanks. There is a 3 month waiting list for the sleep unit, so hopefully something will come of it all before that.
