2 year old DD used to sleep really well. She got into the habit of going happily straight off to sleep after a story with no fuss. She would mostly sleep through but if she woke in the night I would just need to tuck her back in her cot and she would go straight back to sleep. 2 weeks ago I had DD2 and DD1's sleep has seriously regressed. She won't fall asleep on her own at night or for naps unless I stay in the room until she drops off and then sneak out. This can be hard to do as I am BF DD2, and DD1 only wants me to stay with her.
Last night was tough as she wouldn't settle and ended up in my bed. Between both DDs I was awake from 1-6am last night and am exhausted!
I am thinking about starting controlled crying with DD1 again - I did it when she was 1 year old and worked a treat. But I feel a bit mean doing it as I assume she is just insecure right now and wants reassurance that I am here for her?
Shall I sleep train or shall I put it on hold for a while and hope that she starts to settle herself again after a while?
