I am having a nightmare with one of my DTs. They were both dream sleepers going to bed at 7 and sleeping until 6.45am. One of them has taken in the last fortnight to screaming the house down whilst going to sleep (finally after half an hour he falls asleep), then waking up in the middle of the night screaming - there is nothing wrong with him as i check the nappy, check his temperature etc. A few times I've taken him downstairs and he grins, laughs and starts playing. Putting him back to bed or trying to rock him just results in more screams. This lasts for a couple of hours, when i finally get him back off to sleep he then wakes for good at 5.30am. It would be great to try controlled crying but i dont see how I can with his brother in the same room as him!!! Does anyone have any advice for me!! The DTs are now 10 months old - someone please tell me its just a phase...going to work on 4 hours sleep is impossible!
