Not after advice really, got enough thread requesting advice. Just a whinge. I'm so fed up with spending my evenings stuck in the bedroom trying to get dd2 down to sleep. I sick of screwing up our day by going out and her not sleeping or staying at home so she can get to sleep. I'm sick of trying yo second guess her all the time. And I am sick of feeling like I am doing it all wrong, like if I do xyz it will help, but I don't know what xyz is or i have to persevere with xyz and in a few months it might help. Or it might not.
Most of all I am sick of not being able to go to bed till she deigns to and having to wake up whenever she does. I'm sick of taking 40 mins to get to sleep when I only have a 3 or 4 hour sleep window.
It's been 4 months. She is my second child. Clearly I am doing something wrong because my mum 'never had any problem getting you all to sleep'.
