Help! Don't know what to do!! 16 month old is BF morning & bedtime & has been feeding to sleep. Has never slept right through but I've always fed back to sleep. Before Christmas started taking longer to settle or would nap while feeding then be wide awake again! DH started helping with settling at bedtime (staying with her until she went to sleep) and going in if she woke in the night telling her to lie down. She would go back to sleep for him really well! Anyway in the holidays we were staying with family & in the same room so she wouldn't settle knowing that I was there, and I fed to sleep again. Since coming home she slept through 2 nights but last night just constantly wanted to feed and wouldn't go back in her cot, had slight temp which I put down to teething. I got hardly any sleep. Tonight she went down at 9.30 but woke at 11.30. I fed her & tried to put her in cot but she wouldn't go down. Took her into bed, she's sitting up etc. DH got annoyed and said he would settle her but she screamed the place down for 10mins so I went in to help. DH got cross with me for not leaving him to it and went back to bed. Now I feel awful and don't know what the best appriach is!!! Aaarghhhh
