HELP My baby hates going to bed at night!

Hey guys! I’m new here and looking for some advice from you expects to help me!!

My daughter is 5 and a half months old nearly 6 months old and she’s had a bedtime routine since she was about 5 months old! We do the same routine every night, curtains get shut, we have a cuddle, maybe watch something on tv or read a story, then I take her into my bedroom ( she’ll be in her own at 6 months! ) get her ready for bed, change her nappy, give her her bottle, give her a cuddle till I can tell she’s getting sleepy lay her down and that’s when the drama starts! She used to be really good! She’d go down without a fuss but for the past two weeks it’s been a nightmare, constantly backwards and forwards trying to settle her back to sleep but everytime I leave the room she goes crazy! The same if she’s sleeping on me and I go to put her down, doesn’t matter how deep in her sleep she is she will always wake up!!! Am I doing something wrong! Literally any advice or tips would be amazing! I’m a FTM so don’t have a clue if I’m missing something or doing something wrong!!! I hope someone can help!!! :)

Have you tried helping her get to sleep rather than just putting ber down? Does she have a dummy? Anything to comfort her to sleep?

Thanks for the reply :) yeah I’ve tried everything, rocking her to sleep, reading her stories, lullaby’s she’s got an owl that plays white noise but she hates everything! She doesn’t take a dummy, tried numerous of times but she’s not interested, thought it may help comfort her to sleep too but she doesn’t wanna know, she has a blanket that’s her comfort blanket but even that doesn’t help.

Is a free service? I’m doing test cases to complete my qualification, how is that making money?
