Has anyone tried sleeping training ?? Help

[Daisyflower12345]

How did you do it ?

I really need to do something as I'm physically and emotionally drained!
DD is 14months and still isn't sleeping through the night an regularly wakes up. I'm so sleep deprived. Many have mentioned to try the Ferber method where you come in after long intervals. I just need to do something and this is literally my last and final option I don't know wat else to do.

Has anyone tried this ?? Has it worked ? Was it the worse thing ever ? Please any advice will help.

@Shattered30 wow you are one rude person. First of all learn some damn manners on how to speak to people. Second of all read the actual post and you will see that I have not actually gone ahead with sleep training my baby.

I know damn well how to look after my child and how to meet my child's need.

Do not comment so rudely. Learn some manners and read posts properly before commenting.

@Daisyflower12345 Hope your getting on ok with gradually moving away.
We are doing good no night wake ups for over 2 weeks but some early mornings 6/6.30! X

@HoneyPea Well the moving away isn't happening as of yet as DD gets very upset if I don't tap her and gets quite hysterical. So at the moment just gradually slowing down the tapping. I think with DD I have to go at a very very slow pace. But nights are slightly better than before.

Awww that's good at least your son is sleeping through which is great. Even DD sometimes has early mornings.

@Daisyflower12345 That's a shame are you going to keep trying? At least it's a bit better than before. Are you at least feeling more rested? X

@HoneyPea Hey

Well tonight was a lot better. I didn't need to tap her thankfully. I put her down in the cot and layed next to her on the floor with my hand just placed on her. She got up an sat up a few times but I just stayed quite laying there. Then when she would get annoyed or cry I just calmed her down and said "mummy is here go to sleep" about half an hour later she finally fell asleep with me just next to her. So massive improvement. I'm just hoping I keep this up an can slowly start moving away. But I'm happy to take it very slow with her as the main thing is she doesn't get too hysterical and distressed.

How are you?

Hope you are still getting on a bit better?
Everything went a bit crazy here. DS has been struggling to go to sleep for just over a week, crying if we leave the room and not calming down which isn't like him. We didn't know what was up with him but I got a positive COVID result on Thursday and DH and DS got an inconclusive result so thinking it's because of that ☹️ x
