i am about at my wits end my dd is 11 months old . and has never been a good sleeper , but has just gotten worse to the point its tuesday and ive slept 2 hrs in 3 days .
She is a Tummy Sleeper , still likes to feed to sleep , wont take bottle or dummy , drinks from a cup . sleeps in cot , co sleeping didnt work for us as im a toss n turner and wold just wake her even more , and when ex dh was about he wounld have it . am attempting to cut feeds with cows milk which has been in her diet for ages so maybe not .
Shes not teething she has all her teeth ( yes all ) . i cant get in to the GP for 10 days but i dont think its an ear infection .
She just wont sleep , we cuddle and feed and she is asleep in my arms doesnt matter if i wait 2 mins or 35 she will wake up no matter how gentle i am if i leave her she will crawl up the cot stand up and shake the cot side all bright eyed again ( thanks mum had my recharge .)no cry or controled cry doesnt work she crawls up the cot and sits . no day naps cut them out at 6 weeks . useto have a bed time of 630pm . awake at 830 , 1030 130 230 4 6am that stopped about 9 weeks ago . and was about the best it had been ever . no she will go to bed before 2am if im lucky and sleep for around an hour and be wide awake and ready to go .
So i think ive read every book there is , but somewhere i read about tapping or stroking to sleep ? not really sure how that would work as u put her in the cot she sits up no matter how tired she is .
But does anyone have any suggestions ? cause i have to get some sleep at some point .
