My baby (16 months) isn’t well I don’t think stuffy nose and a bit of a cough however she won’t sleep it’s been three naps and two night sleeps when it’s took well over an hour each time with medicine rocking won’t even have her pacifier I think teeth are playing a role too. She’s never ever ever been this bad we have a dehumidifier, vapour plug-in and menthol baby rub for her chest. Nothing seems to be working when she is ready for sleep she says night night but now is fighting it and refuses to say night night and as soon as I mention it she starts crying - I’ve left her to cry, tried to soothe her, gave bottles, dummy nothing works. I can’t do it anymore it’s physically draining as I also have a 2 month old and the dad works lates and then decides to take himself off to a one on one gym class (outdoors social distancing) three nights a week so I’m dreading the rest of the week. Today after half hour of her screaming and resisting any and all attempts at soothing her I’ve got her up with the intention of not trying her again for a nap because there’s no fight left in me I can’t do it.
She’s been on and off with her sleep but it’s usually night waking or early morning with the occasional night where she won’t go to sleep at first and it takes a while.
Any advice?
