Help! The last 5 nights my 10 month old has been a nightmare with sleeping.
He is generally waking up at about 2am and it's impossible to get him back to sleep in his cot. (Though tonight he woke at 10.30 and 1.30am).
He will take a bottle and fall asleep on me, but placing him back on the cot is impossible and he will sit/stand and scream until we pick him up again.
Other times he is just wide awake and won't go to sleep.
I have been fighting it out until the 2hr point when I'll give up in frustration and have to get my husband to help. Luckily he can help more now it's the weekend.
It could be teething (so have given some calpol) or maybe separation anxiety or a developmental leap....who knows....?
I just wondered if anyone has any tips or just some reassurance that this will pass?!?!
I've had a cold all week and just feeling run down so sleep is needed more than ever right now!
