Hoping that @FATEdestiny will see this and be able to offer me some advice/help and of course anyone else that has some suggestions.
Baby is 11 weeks. She CAN sleep well because she’s doing a couple of nights of 7 hour stretches but that seems to have vanished now. She is very very difficult to put down at night and it’s often up to 2 hours before she actually falls asleep which then is getting closer to her needing a feed. I do a bath, bed clothes, feed, quiet time routine and dimly lit room. She will fall asleep in arms but then wake once put down, have tried putting her down drowsy but she doesn’t fall asleep, doesn’t really fuss just is awake. A bedtime routine that starts at 8 ends up with not falling asleep until 11 and she’s now waking 2/3 hours later to be fed.
She is formula fed now with one bottle of breast milk a day, she has about 150-180ml each feed usually 4 hours apart in the day and longer at night.
Just desperately want to get her down to sleep at a reasonable time and now have to pick her up/put her down several times. This morning I felt at breaking point. This combination with covid tier 4 is really upsetting me.
