Dd will not settle at night. This has been going on for about 3 1/2 months and is getting worse.
Last night she was screaming until 11.00pm. She was put to bed at 6.30 to give her time to settle Four and a half hours later.....She is hysterical, I am shaking and dp is exhausted.
We have tried everything, calmly returning her to bed, wind down time, stories etc. She has a good bedtime routine, but this just seems to alert her to the fact she is going to bed.
As nothing seems to work, is it possible she has developed some sort of phobia about it all, and if so what on earth do we do?
We can't carry on like this, she is so tired she is hardly functioning. Medised works, but makes her really unbearable the next day
Can anyone advise or help, am dreading tonight. She is 2.2 btw, and has always been an awkward sleeper, as many threads on here will attest to
