LO is lying on me fast asleep, having passed out at 8am, its now 10am Looks like she could carry on sleeping (she took 3 hours to settle last night). Her day time naps are never more than 30mins so I'm loaved to wake her. In fact she only sleeps wellif she's on/nrxt to me and has started waking in the middle of the night for a few hours at a time.

its sleep regression I guess. How do I get her back on track, or do I just ride the storm? I'm shattered. She's 4mo.

Has anyone some advice? I've just spent the past 3 hrs again trying to put her down for the night but she wakes as soon as I put her in the cot. She's knackered. She normally goes to sleep within 20 mins :(

Try getting her to go off to sleep in the cot rather than on you? Put her down awake and sit next to her, rub her stomach etc. She'll cry but will eventually fall asleep.

We've never succeeded in getting her to self settled. She just plays with her feet, grins at me, then gets bored/overtired and starts screaming louder and louder until she's in a complete tizzy.
