Bella "wakes" but only if she spits out her dummy - she doesnt get out of her cot - or very rarely. When she was sick this week with infection she was up a few times and I know how tiered I was then - thats nothing compared to you your poor thing.
I have been trying to get Bella to bed earlier as I know what you mean about no "you" time or couple time and I miss that also.
When Bella does wake in the night (espec when she was sick) I would put her in our bed and she would go straight back to sleep.. maybe give that a go?
Im not sure about the feeding thing as I was not able to BF so bella has been on Formula - and she rarely feeds over night at all.. only when she was sick.
I have been doing the 15 on and 15 off thing - I will put her down and let her lie awake for 15 and if she is protesting then up for 15 - only usually goes for 2 cycles - IF she gets upset though I will not leaver her there - only if she is playing or just giving little grizzles. Dont know if that would help?
I really dont have any answers as Bella is still up right now as I type this and that si not unusual now - I thinkI have just gotten used to it to be honest!
Some times DH goes and lies with her on our bed when she has been protesting and just sings to her and she will fall asleep.. maybe another thing to try??
