Please help! 7mo terrible sleeper

[JJL90s]

I have a 7 month old who is still a terrible sleeper.

His naps are all over the place. It’s such a battle to get him down for naps. He won’t even be rocked to sleep or fed to sleep. He naps for about 30 minutes at best when he does go.

As for nighttime, we co sleep which I really don’t want to do but again that’s the only way he sleeps. He still wakes multiple times in the night. I also end up going to bed at about 7ish with him because again he just wakes up otherwise.

I just think he should be so much more settled by now. I am literally open to anything!! What have people done that’s worked to get their babies to be good sleepers?

Thank you from a slightly desperate mummy.

This is my lo right now at 9month old. When she was 6month I did sleep train using the Ferber method which is basically controlled crying. I will say for me it work great she went from being like your lo to sleeping in her own room through the night with rarely any wake ups for around a month and a half. However, mine is now at the age of separation anxiety and has gone back to how she was before😩. I do hear many success stories using sleep training methods so do not let it put you off. I would give it a try if you are open to it.x
