My kid is 14 months and is so difficult to get to sleep. When we were on leave we had been waking her at 8am so she went to be around 8.30pm which was late and meant we didn't have much of an evening. 3 weeks ago she started in crèche and my DH went back to work so we started waking her at 7am and the first few days were blissful she went to bed between 7-7.30pm no bother and we had our evenings again but the last week she's been a nightmare. Last night i was so wrecked i said i'd go to bed with her at 7.30pm in the spare room so we'd hopefully both get more sleep. By 8.45pm she still wasn't asleep and my DH took her and i went back to the spare room to sleep. She went to sleep around 9pm apparently. IS this normal. How is she not tired. Any tips for what to do. Usually we put her to bed in her cot after bath and her having had a bottle and a cuddle in the dark. We wait holding her hand until she's gone to sleep. I was thinking maybe i could read to her with a nightlight? I miss my DH i feel we don't see each other as one of us spends our evening trying to put her to bed.
