Oh man what a row we've just had. All while bean is crying. Feel awful so can someone please help or reassure?
We have very much not gone the route of sleeping training. Little one doesn't sleep and had early problems with reflux/ nursing strike so I just accepted that sleep was hard fought till she was a bit bigger. I've walked her endlessly, tried various things and things are slowly (oh so slowly) getting better.
Trouble is, DP has not persevered. He used to do one nap time walk a month till I just broke down in tears one day trying to get a load of jobs done and he's started to try some outside walks. It's very hit or miss.
In the evenings though its a nightmare. LO will only settle with me. She goes bananas if he goes in to resettle her. He always calls me in after a while.
Has anyone else had this? yes, DP needs to get his finger out a bit but he's also not getting anywhere with her at all. I just found him pleading and shushing and rocking and little one hysterical after I put my iPod on as I have to work in the evenings. I don't have any time to juggle being self employed and a full time mum so I have to sometimes make him go. It's such a disaster though.
Help?
