8mo waking at 4am

Help!

My 8mo wakes every night at 2ish then 4ish. At 2ish she just wants a quick feed, but at 4 she's wide awake. Sometimes if we take her from her crib to co-sleep she will fall back asleep, sometimes not.

We used the ferber method to sleep train her and it was brilliant at getting her to sleep, she just falls asleep after being put down awake at 7pm without fail. This does not work at 4, she will scream and will not stop until we get her.

Her naps are awful. She gets tired at different times and unless she is at the exact point of tiredness she won't sleep. For naps she needs a dummy and a cuddle. It's roughly 45mins at 9am, 45mjns at 1pm and sometimes 20mins at 4.30pm but varies daily.

Any ideas? I'm a nurse on mat leave and I'm pretty worried about returning to work in a month.
