Just after some recommendations.. DD is 6 months, wakes usually twice a night for feeds (is fully BF) but goes to sleep again straight away. Usually ends up being fed to sleep at bedtime too. Because of this (and I've probably created this problem myself) she will only really go to sleep at nap time if she's fed to sleep. Otherwise we just get about 45 minutes of screaming. Pick up put down doesn't work, just winds her up more and more. I'm not really prepared to try controlled crying because I sense it just won't work for her - when she gets really wound up she can really let rip for a long time!
So, does anyone have any good experiences with different techniques and/or books? No-cry sleep solution? (what IS the technique in that one?)
Basically I'd love her to be able to settle herself at naptime ... [a mum can dream emoticon]
