Possibly a controversial thread but I need some advice!
DD 21 months and isn't the best sleeper. She can sleep through but has only done so on about 3 occassions. On a good night she is up once, on a bad night she can be up every hour.
I have not and do not want to go down the controlled crying/cry it method. I usually give her a few minutes to see if it's a whinge or an actual cry before going to her. Sometimes it's for her dummy, sometimes milk, but usually after 20 minutes she goes back to sleep.
Dh is now throwing a strip saying she should be sleeping through by now. I do all the night wakings (We both work full time but he works randon shifts including nights so I've just got on with it)
He is now saying he will do everything and make her cry it out all night til she learns which just makes me feel sick.
We are moving house soon so she will be going into a bed which I think will help but he's insisting we start now.
So help! Any advice without resorting to letting her cry all night!
