omg i am sooooooo tired

the last week or so i have been woken up - usually between about 3 and 5am, by my dd (who is 1 on saturday) babbling and chattering which then develops into angry crying.

i always go and check on her and she is fine, nothing wrong with her. it usually goes on for about half an hour to an hour but when she finally gives up the little bit of sleep i then get is disturbed and not very good quality so i am just absolutely shattered at the moment.

what is making her wake up?? she has slept thru the night since she was 6 weeks old. why is she starting now???

it cant be hunger as she is a good eater (3 meals a day plus 3 bottles of formula and at least 2 bottles of water/dilute juice). and anyway surely a 1 YO wouldnt wake for hunger in any case?

i feel bad for ignoring her but i dont want it to become a habit, and i dont want to give her a bottle becaause then she might do it more as she thinks she will get something.

aaarggghhh need sleep.
