hun, while it's exhausting she won't need you there forever. Before you know it you'll wonder when you'll ever get a cuddle!

We wouldn't expect a baby to walk up the stairs when it hasn't even learnt to crawl properly yet. It's no different with emotional development, your baby isn't ready to be on her own all night. All babies develop at different stages, and where some can walk at 10 mths (like my DD) and self-settle at 6 mths, some can take longer. They all do it eventually!

The important thing is how YOU are doing with this and whether you need more support or you need to change things as you're fast wearing down. What's going to make life easier for you while your DD can't sleep through the night on her own?
