Our baby is four months old and for the past seven weeks she will not sleep.
It's not the usual 'wakes every hour,' it's literally not sleeping in the first place. We have tried almost everything, we're now sleeping in shifts at the weekend with my husband doing 8-12 and 6-8 in the week so I get a few hours to enable me to function.
We've tried all the advise, bought all the sleep books, she has a bedtime routine, I kill myself to get her to nap three times a day which also doesn't really help, she's too young to do controlled crying .... I've been reading sarah ockwell smiths gentle sleep book and see she also does personal advise.
We don't really have the money but if it worked it would be worth it.
Has anyone used a 'gentle' sleep trainer? Would it help? I feel at this point just having someone tell us what to do would help, the baby is barely getting 6 hours of sleep over 24 hours and almost all of that is under an hour. It's not working for any of us.
