Help, please wise mumsnetters
DD has always been a diabolically bad sleeper. Had breastfeeds in the night regularly til 15 months when I eventually stopped breastfeeding then had milk in night for ages. Not done that for ages (but at least that sort of waking was a quick drink and back down again)
We've had weeks of her waking somewhere between 11pm and 2am sobbing. She'll settle quite quickly after a nappy change (in pants in day but wet through in night) and snuggling into our bed. Attemps to get her to remain in her own bed are a disaster and usually after2hr+ of screaming we cave in and she joins DH in our bed and I go in the spare room (I/m pregnant and there's not room for DH, DD, me, the bump and my drea, genie pillow in our bed) This has been vastly worse since she knew I was pregnant and I am assuming there is a linked sleep regression to do with her worrying about having to share mummy and daddy. Sometimes she cries that "my teeths are hurting" (molars not through yet" and she does gring her teeth or insist on chewing on a flannel at these times as well as having calpol.
Do I just accept this is a phase or is there a way to solve it. Modified CC has not been effective 9Modified in that I have to do a return to bed and then leave her think as she's in a bed not a cot). She settles instantly "in daddy bed" but attempts to put her back in her own bed usually result in waking and screaming again. We have a 6ft bed so if I were not PG this wouldn't be that bad. I'm just worrieed about what I shall do with a newborn and this....
