4.5 month old DD used to be a good sleeper (1 wake up to feed), is now teething and all gone to pot.
I BF to sleep but she's now waking every 40mins and will not settle unless on me. I've given Anbesol for her gums, she's not screaming in pain so reluctant to get the calpol out. Is this 'every half hour/40mins' teeth or inability to fall back to sleep without boob?
She can nap without needing boob (sing quick rhyme, into cot, leave and she goes to sleep) but nightime...I'm up for hours.
I've tried not rushing in but her cries get louder then she wakes herself up even more. When she does 'feed' on me it's a min and she's dozing so it is a sleep association.What do I do? I'm beyond exhausted!
