Thanks everyone I'm also glad to hear it can just happen. I was talking to a friend who has 6 kids and she said in her experience it doesn't just happen and if it hasn't by 18 months you need to do something about it. I can't do CC, although last night I thought about it, but I'm just not comfortable with it. .

Well I have four so not six but still. None of mine have been great sleepers. And yes the tiredness gets you down at times. I find eating healthy and a bit a exercise helps. Also a sanity shower to clear the mind before bed. Dd1 slept wellish til 9 months then terrible til about 2.5 yrs. with up to 4 milk cups thru the night at 2 ahhhh. Then dd2 always slept badly over night and still comes to our bed 2 times a night 5 nights a week ds still wakes often and dd3 can be second hourly. But I promise it gets better. All three of my older ones slept all night in their own bed and Molly gave me a 5 hr stretch. Lord I feel like a new women.
