I am thinking of night weaning my 7½ month old DD. She wakes every 1½ - 2½ hours throughout the night and it?s really starting to take its toll on me. I have tried only feeding every 4 hours, but I think that?s confusing her (and I just end up giving in and thinking ?that?s close enough? after a couple of hours. We?ve also tried No Cry Sleep Solution and spent several weeks going ?I think things are improving? before realising that actually they weren?t at all. I know it?s not recommended to night wean before 1 year, but she?s a sturdy wee thing (on 91st centile, so the same weight as a 50th-centile 1-year-old), and I am due to return to work in a few months and want to work on our nights while I am still around full time in the daytime rather than suddenly disappearing from her nights as well as her days (plus it would be nice to spend at least part of my maternity leave not in my pyjamas obsessing about when I can get my next nap hit in). We co-sleep part time (she?ll start in her cot and then we?ll get into bed together when she first wakes, which at the moment is usually about 10pm), and ideally I?d like to continue to co-sleep (or at least do sidecar cot) but would reluctantly consider making the switch to full-time cot-sleeping if there was no other way it would work. I was planning to do the Jay Gordon method, but am open to other ideas. Has anyone else out there had success with night weaning before a year? Please tell me your children aren?t scarred for life because of it?
