8month DS has just learnt to crawl. He had some bad nights for about 2 weeks before hand. I naively thought when he nailed the crawling it would settle down but last night was the worst by far. He woke at midnight and wouldn't go back to sleep until 2:30 then woke at 3:30 and 4 and then he was up for the day. So I got 2 hours sleep (10-12)
I'm just so tired. Im assuming it's the crawling, if it is, how long is it likely to disrupt his sleep for? Could it be something else? I've had to take him back to 3 naps a day because he starts his day around 4 am.
DH tries to help as much as possible but he commutes into London at 5 am so I try to let him sleep as much as possible during the week. Weeks of bad sleep are taking its toll on me and it's starting to affect my ability to be a good mum. I just don't know if it's something I just need to ride out or if it's something I'm doing.
