Hi everyone, really need some advice! My daughter is 8 months and 2 weeks and we're really struggling with sleep at the moment. Before Christmas she slept in her own cot all night at the side of my bed but now she's not and is waking up lots in the night. She will continue to cry until I pick her up and rock her and then put her into my bed. Most nights I'll put her back into her cot once she's back to sleep but other times I fall asleep and she spends the night with me. I know the dangers of co sleeping but I'm constantly exhausted and I do try so hard not to drop off. Also in the day she will only nap lay on my chest. I'm a first time mum so I might be wrong but I thought at 8 months she'd be comfortable napping alone? Where does everyone else but their babies to nap in the day? Thank you in advance!
