16 month old has always been a good sleeper through the night, having the occasional couple of weeks with some night wakings but for around 4 weeks now she has been really hard to get to sleep. She has a dummy and a muslin cloth but just throws them out for around 30-45 mins and moans out- she doesn’t cry properly which makes me think she has created a little game lol. She could go to sleep probably without her dummy but her cloth I don’t think she could so I go back in and lie her back down with them both and say lying down night night.
then is consistently waking at about 2 and we have the same pattern repeat again. I know this isn’t as bad as some may have but I’m so tired as I’m a rubbish sleeper so can’t get back off some nights! Do I just keep doing what I’m doing and hope she just works it out or do I try anything else?
(please note I won’t do controlled crying/ferber).
thanks x
