Hi, just wondering if anyone else has experienced the same and has any tips.
My almost 12 mo DD is bf to sleep and we co-sleep, I'm totally fine with both as they've made night times ok for us all, she usually feeds back to sleep pretty quickly.
However, for the past week or so she's been taking about 2 hours to settle at night. She'll feed, seem to nod off, then wake up and walk around on the bed until she seems tired again, then repeat. She's also waking around midnight and staying awake for anywhere from 2-4 hours. Again, feed, get dozy, wake up, roll around, repeat.She's clearly tired but just can't seem to to sleep.
The only thing that's working is if I put her in her cot for a few minutes when she's in the wakeful phase. She'll then absolutely scream, I'll pick her up and she'll feed to sleep. I hate leaving her to scream though. Any other ideas? What do other people do when their baby wakes for hours at night? If I try to ignore her she climbs over me, scratches me etc
