my DD has been a fantastic sleeper and i really mean fantastic from about 3months she slept through from about 9pm till 7am and has done most nights since untill recently! i know ive been absolutly spoiled with her good behavior but now she seems to be so unsettled and i dont know what to do. she has recently become more mobile and seems to wake herself up if she moves during the night we contine to swaddle her otherwise she flings her arms about waking herself up but now shes started to roll onto her tummy again waking herself up, the problem is once shes awake she wont settle again without a fight! lol we have a blackout blind and dont put any lights on we dont talk to her but she just WILL NOT settle i know it may be teething but has anyone got any advice she just continuously wakes herself up, i think if i could stop that she wouldn't wake. ive ordered one of these to see if it will help cgi.ebay.co.uk/Swaddleaze-BNIB-NEWBORN-SIZE-This-really-works-Bargain_W0QQitemZ140235846191QQcmdZVie wItem?hash=item140235846191&trkparms=72%3A12%7C39%3A1%7C65%3A12&trksid=p3286.c0.m14.l1308 but any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Also when do you stop swaddling them i mean you dont want them to be 2 and still being swaddled do you?

sorry i should have said shes 6 months. tonight she went down without a problem about 7.30pm as she was shattered (it is early for her) she woke about 8pm had a bottle then i put her down and as soon as i left the room she started crying i went in and 'shh' her but she didnt settle again till 9pm i feel so bad for her because shes obviously tired, i dont know what ive done differently to what i normally do.....i dont want her to get used to being cuddled to sleep but its the only way at the momment i can find to calm her any advice?
