DD is 4.5 months old and is in her own room, DP and I moved into the bedroom next door to hers, which is much smaller than ours when we moved DD into her own room about 6 weeks ago. This was on advice from HV as keeping her in our room until she is 6months old isn't an option as she's a light sleeper and we kept waking her up.
she slept really well up until 2 weeks ago, she's now teething and seems to have entered the 4month sleep regression!
She's feeding 1-2 times during the night but awake for 1.5 hours on a food feed! She's then waking up for half an hour here and there 2-3 times on top of this!
DP helps out. I do the feeds and he will do the odd half an hour here and there (usually one a night.) But he's irritating me so much as he keeps on waking me up when he comes to bed at night and gets up in the morning... I'm shattered!
Last night he came to bed when I was asleep and asked me to stop snoring (Ive got a constant cold as I'm so run down with lack of sleep.) Followed by questions about what time DD last fed and how much she'd had. This is his way of gaging whether she will wake again soon as he does a night feed if it's before 12pm which is rare at the moment. This really annoys me! He regularly wakes me up when he comes to bed!
Then there's the snoozing of the alarm in the morning which he always sets 30 minutes before he wakes up for work and snoozes every 5-10 minutes... waking both me and DD up! I've talked to him about being more considerate and it works for about 2 weeks then he starts again.
I'm tired and I'm wasting my breath. He's annoying me through being inconsiderate whilst messing up the small bedroom we're in at the moment with his clothes strewn all over the floor.
we said we would never sleep in seperate rooms but has the time come until DD is sleeping better again? Surely I shouldnt have to keep reminding him not to wake me up when he knows nights with DD are so ruddy tiring at the moment!
Any thoughts/suggestions/comments from fellow tired irritated women really appreciated!
