Please could anyone shed any light on my dd's sleep issues? She has 2 daytime sleeps and will settle for these pretty quickly. She has a quick cuddle and then is usually asleep within 5 minutes. We returned from the US (we were there for a 2 week holiday) nearly 2 weeks ago and since then, she has been a nightmare in the evenings. She always needs to be cuddled or stroked to sleep. DH or I have to creep out of the room otherwise she screams again. After getting her to sleep in this manner, she then wakes up about half an hour later. It then takes a further 30 mins sometimes to get her back to sleep. A few nights ago, we left her to cry for long periods but this really didn't work. She seems to need us there so that she can get to sleep. We just can't work out why she struggles so much at night when she is fine for naps. Has anyone else experienced this? Any good strategies to get things back on track?
