ok, so baby is 6.5 months old, happy during the day, amuses self when im not in the room etc but night time is a totally different story. Settles of to sleep ok, put her down in her cot awake, dummy in, music on...she cries out a few times but nothing major, then off to sleep on her own (i am in the room but she cant see me) she will then wake approx 2 hours later needing her dummy, then again about every 30 - 60 minutes until i looses my will to live and put her in bed with me. her cot is next to my bed so she can see me but will only sleep for a long period with her head on my pillow next to me. i even tried lifting her asleep into her cot with the pillow still under her head, she started crying immediatly.....please help me I am so desperate to get my pillow back to myself!!

i'd get rid of the dummy!!! and persist with getting her into the cot. dont think there are any easy shortcuts though, it will probably be a case of controlled crying or the pick up/put down baby whisperer technique. it is definitely achievable though.
