ok I'm at end of my tether dd2 24 months hasn't slept through since 5 months old. She has mild speech delay and some other quirks. She settles to sleep at 7pm ok then she will awake a few times before we go to bed then around 6 times each night.
Each time she wakes we go in put her music bear on shush her an she settles in seconds. She also awakens with a piercing screech and awful screaming but settles very quickly most of the time.
If we don't get to her quick enough she becomes hysterical and breath holds and then she's up for ages!
This is every single night and I'm exhausted! On a bad night she can be awake 12 times a night.
Doc says she's bit too young for melatonin. She has good bedtime routine etc etc. We've tried her in a bed an she only slept for 3 hours a night was disastrous! I'm out of ideas and out of energy :(
