Hi, looking for some advice before I crack up lol I have a beautiful 20 month old son and he doesn’t sleep at night. When he was first born he didn’t sleep for first 5 nights and then got into a good sleeping pattern and then when he was about 3 months old he would literally be awake all night then got back into a great sleep pattern, but in the last 3 months he is barely sleeping at night. He has always been a late bedder so he goes down about 10-10.30pm and the latest he will sleep is maybe 12.30am and then he wakes up screaming and that is him awake all night. He falls asleep in his buggy in front of telly because that is only way he will fall asleep. I have tried numerous times to try settle him in his room or cot before he falls asleep but never succeed. I feel like Iam surviving on very little sleep as I have a job aswell as I’m a single mum. Please any advice or tips will be greatly appreciated

i feel your pain - my 17th month old does sleep but she screams the house down everything I put her to bed. Have you asked your Health Visitor?

And I really admire you for being a single momma and holding down a job!
