Hi mums and dads,
I am in need desperately!
My 20 month old DD is sleeping awful at the moment. She had started to sleep through but in the past 4 month she is continuously waking up.
I think I've exhausted everything and every method!
She will go down fine 99% of the time but is waking 2-3 times a night. There are occasions when I know by her cry that I can leave her for a minute and she will go back off to sleep but this is not common. She wakes up crying her heart out, stood up in the corner of the cot. We have attempted crying it out but this only makes her more upset to the point she can't catch her breath and sounds as though she may be sick at any minute.
The majority of the time when I go and lay her back down she goes back to sleep until the next waking.
She really does break her heart and is very loud that it makes me jump most times!
I'm just at a loss as to what else I can do. Like most of us I have a very busy life and the broken sleep leaves me running on empty.
Any advice gladly received!
Thank you
