Hi ladies,
I have a 2.5 year old son and a 7 week old daughter. Our son is a fantastic sleeper but out 7 week old is a nightmare!! She is feeding every 3 to 3.5hrs and taking both sides and content afterwards. Her problem is sleeping. I wrap her up and she falls asleep nearly instantally, but when I put her down she only stays asleep for 5 minutes, max 10. Sometimes she will get to 20minues but rarely. I keep having to resettle her all the time, which as you can imagine is hard with a toddler also. I have tried to let her have a little cry to see if she will settle, but no luck. I have also tried getting her up after the 20mins she has and putting her in the car, swing or pram to encourage more sleep before the next feed, but no luck either. She just won't sleep!!!! I am going insane. She sleeps wonderfully overnight. She will finally fall asleep at night around 7.30pm and only wake once around 3-4am and then straight back to sleep until 7am.
Please help me work out why she won't sleep during the day before I go mad...... many thanks in advance
