I'm starting to consider CC as an option for the future, but have some questions I'm hoping someone can help with before I figure out what I'm going to do.
The background:
DD is 7 months old, BF, started BLW but not got that far yet.
Naps have always been a problem.
I did PUPD with her and it worked for a while and we had a little wind down routine and she would settle for decent naps probably 2 out of 3 times per day.
Then we moved house and she got more active and really resisted naps. They've just got progressively worse. If I try to wind her down she either cries or starts wriggling all over the place laughing. If I try PUPD she either starts rolling around playing in her cot or cries so I PU but doesn't stop crying until she's exhausted herself. I abandoned PUPD because she was essentially going to be crying herself to sleep on my arms, not settling herself. She will happily roll around in her cot for ages.
She gets so tired she falls asleep when I'm feeding her, but only for a v short time then wakes again.
At night she falls asleep when I'm feeding her and I can't see a way out of it because she's just too tired to do anything else.
She goes to sleep around 7ish. Sometimes wakes around 11, then again usually between 3-5. I can rarely get her to sleep past 5 or 6am. She used to feed very hungrily at night, but less so recently.
I wanted to try NCSS, but I can't keep her awake during evening feed.
Questions:
Can we use CC just for naps or do we need to use it for everything? ie is it all or nothing? If she napped better I think her nights would figure themselves out.
Does the same person need to keep going in until she's asleep? Can it be a different person for each session?
Thanks for your help.
