DS has not slept in his cot at all since Christmas Day. Every sleep time is a struggle. During the day I have to either let him sleep on me or lay down on his fold out couch with him until he finally falls asleep.
At night he's in with me but he's really restless and has been waking anywhere from 5-10 times between 12-6am. He had 2 teeth come through a little over a week ago, sleep improved for 2 nights and he's been worse than ever since then. Since he has recently figured out how to go from laying down to sitting up by himself, that's also making it harder to keep him laying down. I lay him down, he sits himself up and gives me a big grin. Rinse. Repeat. Once I'm in bed for the night, he moves all over the place, kicks me, turns upside down, flings his arms around. There's no sleep happening on my part at all for most of the night.
DH works nights so I'm on my own (except for tonight - he's taken the night off). I'm so tired, I don't really even know what I'm asking for help with! lol I guess I'm hoping I'm not the only one out there with these issues. I'm not interested in CIO or CC methods, and haven't had luck with NCSS. DS doesn't feed to sleep or is no longer happy to be rocked to sleep either. We have to lay down with him every time. How do I go about getting him to sleep in his cot? At least during the day? Need. Sleep.
