Just looking for a bit of company really if anybody can relate! My little girl 5 months is always bad with noises. The slightest thing wakes her up. A floorboard creek, a dog barking down the road, too much light. This morning was especially hard, i had to leave her for 10 minutes the frustration was too much. Usually i shush her as white noise but i was trying to soothe her for so long it actually hurt my tongue!! I wonder if I can find a small sound box or something to block noise out, although i feel like she would probably focus on the noise and stay awake? Maybe im being silly. She doesn't sleep in the pram either as the sound of cars, birds etc also keep her awake. I suppose it probably because when i put her to bed it's in complete quiet, so I've done this to myself! I was at a baby group and i saw one of the other 5 month olds was playing on a playmat, and feel asleep on their own amongst all the noise of older children clattering. I was absolutely amazed! Mine would never ever do that
she also needs rocked, curious on other people's thoughts on that as some people like my HV say it is fine to do and others say it is creating a bad habit
We co-sleep and i cant even move my arm without disturbing her, she doesn't sleep unless she is being held or touched in some way even in the very beginning. She will lie there wriggling until you put an arm over her and she settles. Anybody else with similar situations?
