DD age 2.4 (dc 3 of 3) goes to bed no problems. But from 11 onwards she can wake up anything from once to 30 times. Screaming, crying, demanding drinks or cuddles, just wandering into our room, or any combination of all or none of the above. It is not night terrors, she is definitely awake..
We have done CC, CIO. The HV has sent us on sleep workshops. We have followed the advice, but to be honest it is all geared towards children that won't go to bed. I have even tried a couple of doses of Piriton. Nothing is working.
She shares a room with her brother (4), so he is being disturbed too.
I suffer with depression. I am fairly sure it is a direct result of 2.5 years of sleep deprivation. My fitbit says I have an average of 3hours and 6 mins sleep a night.
I am just about ready to walk out and no one wants to help us.
