So we have a 3yr old who is pretty normal to amazing when it comes to behaviour so we thought well why not have another. Ummmm no2 Is a nightmare and I need some ideas please!! She is currently asleep on me as she will not settle in her own cot. She was going down but only at 9 or 10pm after an evening of me holding her now she won't sleep without me. Yes I keep trying and she screams and wakes up fully meaning another couple of hours to go back to sleep. We won't leave her to cry it out other than that pile on suggestions even if I have tried them. Next she hates her dad she will only go to him for 2mins if he is lucky. She isn't too keen on anyone else except my mum tbh and our 3yr old. This means doing anything is becoming impossible, dad does his best and holds her so I can cook or we put her down but inevitably it ends up as screaming until I can get her and then calm her down. She has a few allergies so we have eliminated certain foods from my diet as I'm ebf. These have contributed to tummy pains etc. I have 3 different slings and use them when I can but can't use them for very long as I have a bad back and hips. Honestly we are at our wits end. I have barely anytime for myself, son, partner or housework. I don't know what else to do. She does go on her play mat and in a bouncy chair in the morning quite happily for half an hour or so then it's continual up down scream up down scream as well as all the time spent feeding and changing her. My poor 3yr old is starting to misbehave and I am sure it is linked to having less mummy time. Any ideas? Thanks
