So I've finally given in. Dd1 was a brilliant sleeper so never had to consider it. Ds has been dreadful. He's 1 and has the odd night where I'm only up once but more often 2/3 times and just recently for hours at a time. He goes to sleep with me cuddling / feeding him and often wakes when I try to put him down.
I'm back at work and homeschooling and too exhausted to carry on. I drove into a bollard last week. At nursery they put him in his bed and he naps perfectly so I know he can set settle. He just doesn't if I'm here.
We're on night 2. He's fallen asleep after 20 mins crying. Last night was 45 and then a couple of whimpers but basically he slept through. So 🤞 it's working.
But I feel awful. Tell me your stories of sleep training and raising perfectly well balanced humans afterwards to calm me down......
