Hi all,
This is my first time posting and I think I’m looking for a bit of help/advice and maybe a pep talk!! DD is 10 months old, she’s slept through a handful of times but mainly always woke once or twice for her dummy or a cuddle. She has recently gone through the 9-10 month sleep regression and I think she still is to a certain extent and is teething with her front top teeth so her sleep hasn’t been the best recently. However, I feel like over this period I’ve hit a bit of a wall and am really struggling to get up when she wakes in the night! DH is great and to be honest he goes and sees to her most of the time during the night recently but it just leaves me feeling incredibly guilty! I am so used to attending to every single need of DDs and I just can’t understand why all of a sudden I don’t have the immediate jump out of bed when I hear her wake in the night now like I used to? I feel like im failing when it comes to night time and also feel angry at myself about it. During the day I pep talk myself and am constantly saying to myself that if she wakes during the night I’ll get up straight away and bounce into her as normal but then when that time comes I find it really difficult to have that immediate get up and go and let DH go into her instead! Really struggling as to what’s wrong with me/ why im finding the night so difficult all of a sudden - I know I don’t want to find it difficult and I know I want to be the one going into her in the night so not sure where my ‘enthusiasm’ has gone?! Any help, reassurance or anyone going through the same thing with some advice would be greatly appreciated xx
