DD is normally a great sleeper but the past few weeks since she started walking she has been waking every night at about 9ish and not gone back to sleep for about an hour.
We tried our normal thing which is a cuddle on the sofa in her room and back in the cot (throwback from BFing her back to sleep!) but she was not having it and shooting upright and screaming at us.
The last few nights I decided to try this from the little I have heard of it as am getting to pregnant to be constantly up and down and am in shock!
First night took 10 mins of pick up until calm and then back in the cot (cue arched back, feet and head hitting mattress and wailing-straight back up again, calm, back in cot, repeat) until she turned onto her side and sucked her thumb and I could leave.
The next night it took about 6 or 7...
Last night it took less than 5 minutes!!
And as she was going back awake she didn't wake up and start screaming again!
Just wanted to share with anyone else in despair!
