Oh darling I feel for you! We had a little one in hospt a lot and with bad sleeping and I found something that helped us - a t-shirt of mine in bed for him to cuddle. Dont wash it, just wear it to bed and then the next night give it to your bub. Worked well for us when DS was small and worked really well recently when DH went overseas for 3 weeks and left a t-shirt with DS for cuddles at night.

I still lay with DS on his bed most nights and am now getting up just before he is asleep to have him able to get to sleep with just a cuddle so that when this next bub comes he will be ok with me not there for him to fall asleep with.

We were not allowed to let DS cry as he has a heart condition (hence hospt stays) and so had to do very gentle parenting. I feel for you dealing with this and being pregnant at the same time.

Hope it is improving for you. It will get better.
