Well when Zane got to big to rock i used to sit in a chair put a pillow under his head and lay him down on my knees and bounce him that way (I know very funny!) and then like you DD about 5 minutes later he was asleep so i would lay him and the pillow in his cot I'll add at this point that he was 12 months and the pillow was very flat. Then he got to long so I would just pat his back in the cot till he got to sleep, but if he ever woke in the middle of the night he couldn't settle himself we had to help him. It reached boiling point for us when he started getting molars and DH was away for weeks on end and i could have spent half the night settling and then by the time I got back to bed and nearly asleep he would wake again. Now by NO means what so ever am i saying this will happen to you as I said earlier every bub is different. So 2 months ago (approx) we got the Baby Whisperer out and she went through some techniques with us and now Zane goes to bed at about 6.30pm to 7am the next day, he does wake in the night but I no longer need to go into him all the time, obviously there are still nights where his cry is "pain" so of course I'm in there in a flash. He also climbed out of his cot so we moved him to his single bed and he doesn't come out of his room he knows now "sleep time" is exactly that, Same as for his day sleeps. I guess what i'm trying to say is that even if she doesn't "grow out of it" then there is help available to you if you need it, Just don't suffer in silence like I did. My GP put me onto the baby whisperer and I'm in brisbane, i'm sure there would be something like that in your area or something similar if you feel like thats an avenue you might like to explore. Huge Hugs Hunni, whether she grows out of it or not I promise you won't be doing it forever!!
