I have two kids aged 3.5years and 8months. Both are terrible sleepers, I haven’t had a full nights sleep since before I had my eldest boy. I hit some low points with my first and I’m getting there again now. My eldest still wakes multiple times a night and my youngest basically refuses to be out down for naps and bedtimes I have to wait until he is in a deep sleep to put him down, sometimes he will stay asleep bit more often then not, he wakes, cries and the process starts all over again.
i don’t have any time for myself, my evenings are spent getting kids to sleep, and then trying to squeeze in getting some things done before one of them wakes up.
These past few nights have been extra hard as in sick and the baby is teething and got a cold. He’s waking like 4 times an hours, won’t let me put him down at all. Wakes every hour in the night. I feel so overwhelmed and like I can’t handle it anymore. I’m looking at sleep training but don’t want to leave them to cry.
If any mama’s out there have some advice/tips/share some similar experiences and how you handled the situation I’d really appreciate it.
