I know this gets asked over and over but I feel like I'm missing something. Our 6.5 month old's sleep is getting worse and worse and we can't work out why, this week we have had night after night of her waking at night and refusing to back to sleep for up to three hours. I have read the previous posts and taken the advice, but we are still not winning. We have tried pupd and reducing the feeds slowly - but her patterns are haywire (she woke on various nights at 8 & 11, 9.30 and 3 and 10 and 1.30) so its never the same and once up she stays up for hours and will not settle in her cot or even last night, in bed with us. She used to settle with patting and shushing, but no more, sometimes she won't even settle after a breast feed. She naps brilliantly in her cot in the day at regular times (9 and 12.30 for 1.5hrs each time)with minimal fuss. She has been teething and coldy so we have given calpol in desperation, but it makes no odds. She is a great weight and is usually jolly - but is getting more and more tired in the day. Can anyone tell me what we are doing wrong?
