Parenting after LTTTC #2

[Nixon]

Megan, I'm having sleep issues with Asher too. She will NOT sleep in her cot - only in my arms at the moment. Don't know if I'm doing the right or wrong thing, but I don't believe in 'crying it out' and I can't stand to hear her cry. It tears my heart out. Night is better than day, she's sleeping thru maybe 4 hours at a time, but hardly getting a break during the day. The baby bjorn is my best friend at the moment - at least I can get a few things done around the house.

Maybe I was spoilt with how good a sleeper she was for the first 4 weeks.....the tide as certainly turned. We're off to buy the "baby whisperer" book tomorrow and maybe "Save our sleep".

Hope you get a good night sleep soon.

Sazz How did everything go today? I hope everything goes really well for you and I'll be keeping fingers,toes and everything else crossed that you get your BFP very soon

Megan and Nic I hope you get some sleep soon. I know all to well how hard it is to function with very little sleep. I ended up going to "sleep school" in October last year when Sage was 1 year old cos I couldn't take it anymore. It was very hard work and heart renching too as I hate hearing my boy cry but it has helped a bit. He doesn't sleep through every night even now at 19 months but atleast he's now in his cot for each day sleep and he starts out in his cot for the night time too but may wake for a feed and a snuggle in our bed. I should tell you that before we went Sage would only sleep in my arms during the day and sleep in our bed of a night. He would scream the house down if I put him anywhere near his cot. Sending lots of "sleep vibes"to you both.
