Hi there
Hoping for some support really. I am starting CC with my 18mth old dd tonight and am dreading it - she had a tummy bug just before christmas and hasn't been settling to sleep or staying asleep ever since. Last night she wake at 1 am and didn't settle til half 3!! so something has to give.
Have been told to go in after 5 mins then 10 then 15 but not leave her longer than 15mins - my only concern is that she gets very angry when we go in then leave her, if we keep popping in every 15 mins - won't this just get her more worked up???
Goes to be between 7 - 7.30 have been putting a couple of noddy books in her cot and leaving hall light on last few nights and that seems to be helping her settle- good or bad????? any ideas?
Hope someone out there has some useful tips, or does anyone fancy joining me and swapping notes???
My DD is very strong willed, i just need to make sure my will is stronger tonight
TIA
