After weeks of shit sleep, I read another thread and had an lightbulb moment- we're in the 15 mo sleep regression hell.
This is honestly the worst sleep I've ever had with DD. Even newborn stage was better than this. Previously she had been sleeping through most nights.
On a good night, DD may wake crying a couple of times and it takes me about 30 minutes each time to get her back down. On a bad night, she can be awake for hours. I'm lucky if I get 4 hours broken sleep over the course of the night.
DD has recently started nursery - 1 full day and 3 half days. The half days are a mixture of morning and afternoon. I think that's buggering up naps a bit. She's also had a cold which hasn't helped.
I have a mentally demanding job and I just don't know how I'm going to function for much longer. My memory has gone to shit and I feel like a zombie.
I guess I'm looking for reassurance that it doesn't last forever! And any tips. Bedtime routine has stayed the same. Because of nursery, I'm only in charge of her day routine 3 days a week. Help!
