Hoping for some advice. We have a 2yo dd who is just the best in all aspects. She's our only child and we did struggle with a number of issues when she was smaller but those have mostly been ironed out now. The last remaining issue is her sleep... in total she has slept through independently for about 2 months when she was 1. But whenever she got a tummy bug on joining nursery (which felt like every other week for months and months) she would be really sad through the night and want one of us with her. We were obviously fine to be with her as she was poorly and needed comfort. But we've ended up now in the habit of one of us getting in her bed every night even though she hasn't been poorly for absolutely ages. We've (me and DH) not had a whole night in bed together for months. And it's okay, it means we get more sleep than we would otherwise but it's a bit crap also.
We tried to break the cycle and went 10 nights with constant waking and inconsolable crying, for hours and hours on end. And no improvement.
Does anyone have experience with this? How did you get through it and any advice?
