Looking for some advice again. Hope someone can advise.
I have always rocked my 9 month old to sleep. It used to take 15 mins and he'd be in cot. He does wake in the night, but I can cope with that ok.
However, it's taking longer and longer to rock him to sleep. Last night it was 2 hours of rocking/holding him in a dark room. He just doesn't seem to go into a deep enough sleep to put him down. It really isn't manageable any more.
So wwyd now? Feeding to sleep doesn't work. Shush/pat just seems to stimulate him.
I am thinking lie down with him/cuddle him and just persevere through the tears?
