My DD went through the night from 4 weeks and would regularly sleep in her cot in the day. Now she will rarely sleep in the cot in the day. She is so busy at CM that she doesn't always go down but sleeps in the car or buggy. (I commute to work at the moment so she usually gets 2 35 min naps in the car.) Now it's school hols she hasn't been going to CM and in the last 4 weeks has rarely gone to sleep in her got. I've got in the habit of walking in the afternoon and she sleeps then. Going to sleep at night was never a problem because I had a firm routine of bath, bottle, story and bed. I'd put her down awake and frequently she drops off in a few minutes or babbles to herself for 20 mins or so. Last week my Mum had her over night. She was unsettled so my Mum got her up until she fell asleep on the sofa!!!! Now DD screams the moment I go to put her in the cot. She literally sobs, stands up (as best she can in the grobag) and shreaks. I've been waiting 5 minutes going in giving her a quick cuddle (which calms her completely down) and put her back down. Where she literally sobs again. Saturday night and tonight. She cried so much she was sick (no other signs of being unwell and is full of life the moment I strip her down to go in the bath). She is teething but we've never had an issue going to bed before. I'm worried now she appears to be making herself sick. Sorry it's a bit long winded but wanted to give as much info as possible cos I dread ringing HV for advice.
