Just a piece of advice needed.
My DD is 9 months old and going through a terrible sleep pattern. For the past couple of weeks she wakes up screaming at 4am. Usually a bit of controlled crying does the trick.
My DP is on an important course this week for work. and this morning as per usual she woke at 4.15am. I tried to comfort her, then came back to bed where she continued crying to which my DP said 'can't you do something - bring her in here?' To which I tried, and she continued crying. So I took her out of the room and held her in my arms until she fell asleep - holding her in my arms was the only thing which stopped her crying.
The only thing is that she took until 5.30am to fall asleep, then she woke for her day at 6.20am.
I understand it's important for my DP to sleep this week - but I can't keep holding our DD for an hour and a half each night so just not to disturb him.
Should I ask him to consider staying at a hotel for a few days? (He has no friends who live close by)
