I only realised this week she had it as before about 50% of time she would actually fall asleep during her nighttime formula bottle or just after during her lightshow lullabye. But it seems now I need to breastfeed her after her bottle for her to sleep and she is usually asleep within 10 mins. Tried to get her to sleep without boob last night tried all the other tricks to get her to sleep nothing worked, part of the time she was screaming head off, other time calm bit awake but clearly knackered. After hour and half gave in and fed her and she fell asleep (although within 5 mins was awake and screaming again which never happens and since her jabs were on Monday we gave her a smidge of calpol and fed her again and she went down.) think she has a strong suck to sleep association at bedtime ( not so much on daytime) but refuses a dummy have tried 5 different ones now!
my dilemma is whether she is going to be okay with the babysitter on Thursday night. She won't be left to cry and we are only going to cinema so would be back by 10.30. We have only had one night out together since she was born and dh's mum had her apparently it was an hour and half of screaming but she did eventually fall asleep (prob knackered poor love). I really need some adult time with dh especially as we are in separate rooms at mo so he gets enough sleep for work, but I also really hate thought of her screaming for me ( well my boobs) all night long. What to do!?
