what on earth to do *sorry this is long*
Sorry this is pretty long.
Okay so i know i have often posted on here about DDs sleep issues and what not. But i am desperate!!!!!!
I had DDs (10months) sleep routine down. She would have a huge nap during the day, 2hrs. Then bath with dad before he went to work, dinner and feed to sleep. then she would wake twice during the night. eventuallly ending up in bed with us.
A fortnight ago we went away for a couple of days and since coming home, her sleep routine has gotten so bad.
Take last night for instance she went to bed at 6:30, wake at 7:30, wake at 9:30, then 10:30, 11:30, 12:30, 1:30, 2:00, 2:45, 3:30, 4:00, 5:15, then finally 6am. Then she was up, as of today her nap was less than an hour. She has to be tired, i am more than tired.
I need help. Dh is hopeless, he says what can i do? i tell him rock her to sleep, pat her in her cot, cuddle her. So what does he do takes her into the lounge room and plays games with her. So its all up to me. Im tired.
Her bedtime was 7pm, but i brought it back thinking she might have been over tired, and hoped that the earlier bed time would help with her sleep, but no, its made it worse.
I only b/feed her at bed times, and although i know she can, she will not go to sleep by herself, she wants to feed to sleep. Its driving me crazy!!
We have been trying to avoid formula, and she is having other drinks during the day, along with three meals, plus snacks. She slef feeds at meals times, so she finishes when she wants to (so i dont think that i am overfeeding her)
After two weeks, i have averaged under two hours of sleep per night, and that isnt even in a block!! As soon as i try and lay down when she naps during the day she wakes instantly.
i am currently usng no cry sleep solution to help with her sleep, but at the moment i am not making any headway with it :wall::wall:
Would love any advice, help, anything really. :pray::pray::pray:
Sooo tired, sooo very tired :(:(:(
thankyou for reading if you have gotten this far!
