DS2 is 6.5 months & has never slept well. We co sleep but not through my choice, its just been the only way we get sleep. He can only fall asleep by breastfeeding, & feeds every hour through the night. He wakes up every 45 mins or so from 7pm. Have been doing this for 3 months now so its a habit not a phase I think! When I've tried not to feed him or DH to settle him etc. he gets so worked up he is sick. He is a happy settled baby in the day but rarely naps for long no matter what I do. So for all of our sakes in the house we want to try some sleep training. Advice from HV over vomiting is to clear it up & carry on. Has anyone got any similar experience of trying controlled crying when this has happened? Or any other suggestions?
I know controlled crying is controversial, but we have tried lots of gentle techniques & I need to get him sleeping just a tiny bit better for lots of reasons.. other DD, going back to work with lots of motorway driving, general household sanity...you get the picture.
