8 month old sleep! Help!

My baby has always slept pretty well with the typical occurrences - newborn feeds, 4 month regression, etc. We got into a good routine of naps.

8 month hits, along with a bad cold and two bottom teeth and now she will only sleep with me. She refuses naps. She's difficult in general. Which is fine but I can't settle with her in bed with me. Our bed doesn't butt up to another wall and we can't move it - she is crawling and used to having her own safe space to move around in.

I'm at a loss! What do I do Blush

Sorry this isn't much help but it's probably the 8 month sleep regression in addition to the other things you mentioned. In which case all you can do is tough it out for a few weeks and sleep should go back to normal.

Can you contact your HV? The clinic near me has a sleep consultant that may be able to give you better advice
