DD is 18 weeks and has woken every two hours for the past two months. This past week she's been waking every hour. I am a zombie.
But I think I should be trying to teach her to self settle. I never taught it with my first and he was a shit sleeper for 18 months. I want to foster better habits this time.
But I am so tired I don't know what I'm doing, so can someone walk me through it?
Atm every time she wakes at night I feed to sleep and she's back asleep within 5 mins. But I don't think she's all that hungry tbh since she's just fed an hour before. And during the day she goes 2.5 hrs between feeds.
Sometimes in a fit of determination I try to settle her back down with the dummy but she just thrashes around and eventually I give in and give her the boob and she's out like a light.
So I honestly don't know how else to do it? Can someone talk me through the process during a full night?
