15mnths Still No Sleep (!!)

[JohnOne]

Hello all, our 15 month old little boy has only ever managed more than 5hrs sleep ONCE.

Aside from letting him cry himself to sleep, we have tried everything. Or at least, I think we have.

He goes to bed at 7:30 / 8 and is exhausted. He then wakes up at 12:30 / 1, full of energy and we have been taking him in our bed out of our own exhaustion. He is then up for hours wriggling, kicking and fidgeting.

We are both working as well and rarely getting more than 4hrs broken sleep per night.

Has anyone had a similar experience? If so, do you have any advice? We are both at our wits ends.

Thanks all.

What about his naps?
And eating?

Short of going to bed when he does and taking turns to deal with him when he's up, there's nothing I can suggest as someone who didn't sleep train and wouldn't ever suggest it. Sorry.
