DD is 7 months and an awful sleeper. It pains me to even write about it! She wakes a lot, feeds a lot, generally cries a lot in the night. Needs rocked in the hammock back to sleep all the time. Always unsettled. Never goes to sleep without a fight. Naps with a fight for 45 mins max a couple of times a day.
I've tried CC just once and it ended with us both in tears after a couple of hours and her hyperventilating and being sick. So never again.
DS was not dissimilar but more settled by this age and quite frankly I'm not coping anymore.
Has anyone had any success with cold turkey not going into them and sending their DHs? Or will that just antagonise her? DH probably won't cope with that mind you, but my mum might I suppose. Or has anyone used any sort of sleep 'consultant' and if so were they worth it?
