My DD (now 6 months) has consistently been a terrible sleeper from birth. But these past 3 months have gone to a whole new level! Her naps in the day last no longer than 15 minutes - 25 on a good day! An so sleep at night is just crap. I spend my evenings sat in our dark bedroom trying to get her back to sleep. Putting her on our bed did work for a bit, and I got an hour to myself.. But even that has stopped working now!
I've got a DS aged 3 years and it took me 2.5 years to get him to self settle. I can't go through that again with DD. It makes me panicked just thinking about it DH and I have decided to try cc, im really worried about how me and DD will cope though, as I currently co-sleep with her so that we can both get some sleep. But she still wakes over 5 times in the night.
I was wondering if anyone has any cc tips?? An also an advise on whether a cot mobile would help? I thought it might act as a distraction and 'lul' her to sleep?! (Wishful thinking!) Or will that just be too much stimulation?? Totally clueless!
