Jennifer- thank youI have to spread the love, but our post made me feel better about what I'm doing atm so thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey anna, I just read your post in Dee's thread!! Great info.
When she only sleeps 30mins and wakes up she's not as happyshe's just grumpy and cries more and isn't her usual smiley self. I'm coping fine when I use the HAB because it's easy to get her to sleep and she sleeps for ages. It's the days when I am over carrying her around and trying to make her sleep in the basinette that I get really frustrated. I really would like her to self-settle and sleep on her own bc it would be so much easier and I could get things done!! But I feel bad when I try bc she's unhappy and doesn't get enough sleep!
I haven't worked out how to settle her in the basinette well, I've tried before and she just gets distressed and I have to pick her up and then she cries as soon as I put her back down again. I feel like if I don't put her in the HAB she just won't sleep all day!! lol. She doesn't get that it's sleep time! Hmm.......I think I need to try harder but I'm going to have to do it when DH is home coz I get so frustrated!! I will need his help! Do you reckon a weekend would be long enough to get over the hardest part??
I'm in Brisbane.
