I am just checking out ebay to buy him a sleeping bag as he does tend to get out of the covers (and then pull them over his face and scare the hell out of me!)

Although we do keep the room pretty well heated as I am always cold!

He often needs to lie there grizzling for a while (like 5 - 10 mins), he does it on and off, and i agree, it isn't the same kind of distress level as crying, and he just needs to get it out of his system, so i let him... But sometimes he goes to sleep after this, and other times he builds up to a full on cry, and then i spend the next 1.5 hrs going in and out (settling him and then leaving him to nod off by himself).. he wakes up so alert (even though i know from experience that if i get him up he is tired after 30 mins) that he has real trouble getting back to sleep

I am so sick of this... I dont eat properally, cos the time i should get to myself when he is down is constantly spent going into him, and then when is alseep at night thats when i do all the stuff i was supposed to get done during the day..

I'm getting more and more exhausted and frustrated with him! I would honestly pay for somebody to come and show me how to get him into a good sleeping routine... i wish there was a gentle sleep school!

grrr....
